# Pricing and quota

## Free tier

20 calls per tool per day. No account, API key, or signup is required.

## When the free tier runs out

Call 21 on a tool in one day returns an HTTP 402 challenge. Tell the user plainly that the free tier for that tool is used up, or that they can buy a Day Pass. Never retry in a loop to dodge the limit.

## Paid tiers

- Day Pass: $1.49 per 24 hours
- Monthly: $49
- Annual: $399

Gated jobs return `payment_required` with a payment intent. Pay with the returned intent, then retry the same job unchanged.
