Pricing

Pay per result

You pay per event: a start fee of $0.0125 per run and $0.002 per item returned.

  • Keyword search, user search and the latest videos of a user pay the start fee again for every further keyword or user.
  • Video details, comments, hashtags, ranking lists, live status and popular videos of a user pay one start fee per run.
  • Example: 100 videos for one keyword cost $0.0125 + 100 x $0.002 = $0.2125. Two keywords with 50 videos each cost $0.025 + 100 x $0.002 = $0.225. 200 comments of one video cost $0.0125 + $0.40 = $0.4125.
  • A spending limit set on the run is respected: the run stops cleanly when the next item or start fee does not fit.
