Data API Pricing

Data API uses a credit-based pricing where 100 credits = $1. Each request costs credits depending on its type, configuration, and number of elements in array.

Credits are deducted automatically from your account balance when making requests. Request types and credit calculation guides are provided below.

Searching for companies [docs]

The total cost in credits is the sum of all search query costs in your request. Each search query has a base cost of 5 credits plus include option costs multiplied by the number of companies in search results (limited by query limit).

Total Credits = Sum of all Search Query Costs

Search Query Cost = 5 + (Sum of Include Option Costs) × Number of Results

Each include option has its own credit cost:

  • basicInfo – 5 credits.
  • posts – 3 credits.
  • employees – 5 credits.
  • decisionMakers – 3 credits.

Example:

Let's say you make a request with two search queries:

  • Query 1: search for startups with basicInfo + posts includes, limit 2:
    • Base cost: 5 credits.
    • Include costs per company: 5 + 3 = 8 credits.
    • Results returned: 2 companies.
    • Total price: 5 + (8 × 2) = 21 credits.
  • Query 2: search for tech companies with no includes:
    • Base cost: 5 credits.
    • Total price: 5 credits.

Total request cost: 21 + 5 = 26 credits.

Searching for people [docs]

The total cost in credits is the sum of all search query costs in your request. Each search query has a base cost of 5 credits plus include option costs multiplied by the number of people in search results (limited by query limit).

Total Credits = Sum of all Search Query Costs

Search Query Cost = 5 + (Sum of Include Option Costs) × Number of Results

Each include option has its own credit cost:

  • basicInfo – 5 credits.
  • activities – 3 credits.
  • experience – 2 credits.
  • education – 2 credits.
  • skills – 2 credits.
  • languages – 2 credits.

Example:

Let's say you make a request with two search queries:

  • Query 1: search for engineers with basicInfo + experience + skills includes, limit 2:
    • Base cost: 5 credits.
    • Include costs per person: 5 + 2 + 2 = 9 credits.
    • Results returned: 2 people.
    • Total price: 5 + (9 × 2) = 23 credits.
  • Query 2: search for managers with no includes:
    • Base cost: 5 credits.
    • Total price: 5 credits.

Total request cost: 23 + 5 = 28 credits.

Retrieving companies data [docs]

The total cost in credits is calculated by summing the costs of all include options and multiplying by the number of companies in your request.

Total Credits = (Sum of Include Option Costs) × Number of Companies

Each include option has its own credit cost:

  • basicInfo – 5 credits.
  • posts – 3 credits.
  • employees – 5 credits.
  • decisionMakers – 3 credits.

Examples:

  1. Request with basicInfo + posts for 3 companies:
    (5 + 3 credits) × 3 companies = 24 credits
  2. Request with employees for 4 companies:
    5 credits × 4 companies = 20 credits
  3. Request with all include options for 1 company:
    (5 + 3 + 5 + 3 credits) × 1 company = 16 credits

Retrieving people data [docs]

The total cost in credits is calculated by summing the costs of all include options and multiplying by the number of people in your request.

Total Credits = (Sum of Include Option Costs) × Number of People

Each include option has its own credit cost:

  • basicInfo – 5 credits.
  • activities – 5 credits.
  • experience – 2 credits.
  • education – 2 credits.
  • skills – 2 credits.
  • languages – 2 credits.

Examples:

  1. Request with basicInfo + experience for 3 people:
    (5 + 2 credits) × 3 people = 21 credits
  2. Request with basicInfo + activities + skills for 2 people:
    (5 + 5 + 2 credits) × 2 people = 24 credits
  3. Request with all include options for 1 person:
    (5 + 5 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 credits) × 1 person = 18 credits

Retrieving posts data [docs]

The total cost in credits is calculated by multiplying the number of posts in your request by 5 credits.

Total Credits = Number of Posts × 5

Examples:

  1. Request for 3 posts:
    3 posts × 5 credits = 15 credits
  2. Request for 10 posts:
    10 posts × 5 credits = 50 credits
