Billing

How Pricing Works

YepAPI uses pay-per-use pricing — no subscriptions, no monthly minimums. Add funds to your balance and pay only for the API calls you make. Every price is in USD and is deducted from your prepaid balance when a call succeeds.

There are three pricing models:

Flat per call

Most endpoints have a fixed price per successful call, regardless of how much data comes back. For example, /v1/scrape is $0.01 per call and /v1/maps/search is $0.07 per call.

Per page of results

SERP endpoints that accept a depth parameter are billed $0.01 per page of results. Page size varies by engine — 10 results for Google, for example — so depth: 10 costs $0.01 and depth: 30 costs $0.03 (depth max 100). Similarly, /v1/email/domain-search is $0.03 per 10 emails returned (minimum $0.03). The catalog below shows the page size next to each price.

Volume-based

Endpoints that can return hundreds or thousands of rows — keyword research, competitor research, backlinks, content search, LLM mentions, and Google Maps reviews — charge a small base price per call plus a price per 100 results. You are billed on the number of results actually returned in the response, not the number you requested, and the total is rounded up to the next whole cent.

For example, /v1/seo/keywords/ideas:

Every volume-priced endpoint page has a Pricing section with its own cost table, and the catalog below marks them with a volume tag.

Failed calls are free

You are only charged for successful responses. Any 4xx or 5xx response — validation errors, upstream failures, timeouts, rate limits — is never billed.

AI models and media

AI chat (/v1/ai/chat, /v1/ai/chat/completions) is priced on actual token usage with a $0.01 minimum per request. Media generation (/v1/media/queue) is priced per model. See the individual model pages for rates.
