AI agents can register and obtain API credentials programmatically using our agent authentication guide (auth.md). You will still need to sign in or verify your email. Share the link with your agent:

We provide official SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Go, and PHP.

First-time domain lookups may take 10-30 seconds as we crawl and process the website. For time-sensitive applications, use the Prefetch endpoint to request brand data in advance, increase your client-side timeout to at least 30 seconds, or implement async/polling patterns for batch operations. Approximately 70% of requests hit cached brands, which return much faster.

Each plan includes a monthly API credit allowance that replenishes automatically at the start of each billing cycle. Paid plans include metered overage billed in 10K-credit blocks (Developer $15, Pro $9, Scale $7 per 10K credits), so production traffic keeps running when usage spikes — you can disable overage from your dashboard. On the free tier, API calls return a 401 error once credits are depleted. Logo Link has a separate quota and is not affected when API credits run out.

What happens when my API credits run out?

No. You are not billed for failed requests or requests where we are blocked (rarely happens). Credits are only consumed on successful responses.
