Pricing

Sylvia charges per successful request. There are no subscriptions and no
monthly fees. You add credits with crypto and spend them as you go. If a
request fails, you do not pay for it.

1. Rates

A standard request covers most endpoints. That includes post listings,
subreddit and user data, single posts, and bulk lookups. At $0.0005 per call,
1,000 requests cost $0.50.

Live streams and search cost more because they are more expensive to serve.
Live streams are the /comments/live and /r/{sub}/comments/live endpoints.
Search is the /search endpoint.

2. Free credit

Every new account starts with $0.50 of free credit. That is about 1,000
standard requests. You need no card and no KYC to start.

3. How billing works

You pay only for requests that succeed with a 200 response. Failed requests
cost nothing. That includes 4xx errors, 5xx errors, rate limits, and timeouts.

You add credits with a crypto deposit through our payment processor. You can
pay with a wide range of coins, including USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, BNB, XRP, LTC,
SOL, DOGE, and ADA. The full list appears on the checkout page. The coin is
chosen at checkout.

There is no auto-renewal and no minimum. You add credit when you want more.

4. Tiers

Tiers unlock with cumulative funding. Rate limits apply per API key on the
server.

Enterprise adds a 99.9% SLA and dedicated infrastructure.

5. Response formats by tier

Formats control the shape of the response. Most are available on every tier.

You can set a default format or pick one per request with the format query
parameter.
