What a credit buys
One credit is one page of a platform’s search, or one ad with all its detail. LinkedIn uses 2, as about half its lookups are retried on a new address. A page holds up to the number of ads below, so per 1,000 ads the price depends on the platform.

Against the market, per 1,000 ads
As of October 2026, from each vendor’s published prices. Ours is the Growth rate with full pages. ScrapeCreators sells $47 for 25,000 credits and charges 1 credit per request for most endpoints; its page sizes differ from ours, so its column is an estimate that assumes a page as big as ours. Apify’s scrapers charge per ad.

Sources, read 16 to 18 October 2026: ScrapeCreators pricing, Apify: facebook-ads-scraper, Apify: facebook-ads-library-scraper, Apify: google-ads-transparency-scraper. A page with fewer ads costs the same credit, so a narrow search costs more per ad.
What’s free
You pay for pages with ads and for ads found. Everything else costs nothing.
- Every sandbox call, on every platform
- A search page with no ads
- A search the platform blocked on every address we tried
- A timeout, or a page we could not read
- Any other error, such as a parameter the platform doesn’t have
- A call refused for quota or rate
- Agent signup, and the sandbox and live keys it gives

| 15,000 | Starter | $19 + 7,000 × $0.0025 = $36.50 |
| 25,000 | Growth | $49 |
| 60,000 | Growth | $49 + 35,000 × $0.0020 = $119 |
Pricing questions
Do I need a card for the free tier?
No. Sign up with your email and you get a sandbox key and 100 credits a month. Without a card nothing is ever charged: past them the API returns QUOTA_EXCEEDED until the next month. To keep going, move to Starter, or stay on Free and add a card to pay $0.0025 for each extra credit, with no monthly fee.
What is a credit?
One page of ads from a search, or one ad with all its detail. Each uses 1 credit; LinkedIn uses 2, as about half its lookups are retried on a new address. An empty page, a block, an error and every sandbox call use none.
How is going over billed?
Each credit past your allowance is added to your next monthly Stripe invoice, at your plan's rate: $0.0025 on Starter, $0.0020 on Growth, and $0.0025 on Free with a card.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Yes, from the Billing page in your dashboard, at any time. After cancelling, your plan runs to the end of the period you paid for.
When does my allowance reset?
At the start of each calendar month, in UTC.
