Credit System Overview

Our platform uses a straightforward credit system:

  • 1 credit per fresh API request
  • 0 credits for cached responses
  • Automatic caching for public endpoints
  • Use ?fresh=true to force a fresh response

For detailed information about API responses and where to find credit information, see our Response Structure documentation.

Monitoring Tools

    • Per-request credit usage
    • Cache status indicators
  2. Dashboard Analytics

    • Historical usage patterns
    • Credit consumption trends
    • Performance metrics

Credit Management

Best practices for optimizing credit usage:

  • Leverage cached responses when possible
  • Monitor credit balance regularly
  • Review usage patterns regularly

Cached responses are free and don’t consume any credits from your balance. This applies to public endpoints like profile information.
