> Frequently Asked Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How fast will I get results?">
    Response speed varies by endpoint, averaging 1–3 seconds. However, more complex endpoints such as Analysis and AI endpoints may require longer processing times.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Are results fetched in real time?">
    Some data points are available in real time, while others are updated on a daily basis.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How many requests can I run per minute?">
    Your rate limit depends on your plan. We don’t limit requests per second; instead, limits are calculated per minute. The Unlimited Plan allows up to 600 requests per minute. Custom and advanced plans with higher limits and capacity are also available—see the Custom Plans page in your dashboard for details.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What happens when I reach my plan’s request threshold?">
    If you exceeds the allowed RPM for your plan, the system will enforce a 60-second cooldown during which no further requests will be accepted. After that cooldown period, new requests may resume (subject to rate limits again).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="When are credits deducted?">
    Credits are deducted only when a request returns a successful response. Once your balance reaches zero, new requests will no longer be accepted.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What happens when my credits run out?">
    You can purchase additional credits anytime or enable Auto Top-Ups. With Auto Top-Ups, your account will automatically be recharged before your credits run out.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is an active plan required to use the API?">
    Yes. An active plan is required to access our suite of API products. Your credit balance determines how many requests you can make, but credits alone are not enough without an active plan.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What payment methods do you accept?">
    We accept all major credit cards.
