Allowances and costs
Monthly plans provide API credit allowances; MCP consumes credits at the underlying API rate.
Free access: The introductory offer includes 1,000 API credits without a credit card.
- A recurring free allowance was not established.
- Rendering, proxy and extraction settings can increase request cost.
What still needs checking
- Documentation reviewed; provider connection and task execution were not tested.
- Account entitlement, remaining quota and actual task cost are unknown; a trial or free plan is not a guarantee of payment-free execution.
- REST and hosted MCP have different credential placement.
- Only the hosted MCP option is task-reviewed for web_search; the HTML REST endpoint is bound only to read_page.
