}Free vs paid results
Basic and Pro only: a Free account gets an error naming the plans. Basic runs 15 analyses a day and 75 a week, Pro 30 and 150, shared with the web Competitors tool; past them, users who turned on usage credit pay $0.20 an analysis.
Paid access does not fill coverage gaps or unknown values. Returned plan metadata and lock notes explain redaction where applicable. Read the full Free data policy.
Rate limits and usage credit
Days reset at 00:00 UTC. The combined ISO week resets Monday at 00:00 UTC. Every served tool call counts, including cached reads. Failed or refused calls are released along with any charge. Compare plans.
After either allowance, Basic and Pro can opt in to pay $0.02 in usage credit per call to find_competitors. A call exceeding both windows is charged once. Free is refused past its allowances; paid plans without opt-in or enough credit are also refused with HTTP 402 / JSON-RPC -32004.
Credential request throttles and, for live keyword work, store-work throttles also apply. Follow retry instructions in the error reference.
