  https://nekosia.cat/documentation?page=introduction (the "Free Usage" section) and
  https://nekosia.cat/documentation?page=tos (§2 "Commercial Use"), read verbatim from the
  provider's own documentation repository at https://github.com/Nekosia-API/documentation.

summary: >-
  Nekosia publishes NO plans, NO tiers and NO prices, and this is a deliberate product position
  rather than a gap. The API is free, requires no registration and issues no API key, so there is
  nothing to price and no account to attach a plan to. There is no pricing page anywhere on the
  site and none is linked from the navigation. What exists instead of pricing is a licensing gate:
  standard public use is free, and COMMERCIAL use is prohibited without prior written consent from
  the administrator, obtained by contacting them directly.

    Access is keyless and anonymous. The only enforcement surface is the per-IP rate limit
    (see rate-limits/nekosia-rate-limits.yml) and the terms of service.

  quote: >-
    "YOU MAY NOT use the Nekosia API for commercial purposes without prior written consent.
    Commercial use includes any activity that generates income or supports commercial activities,
    including but not limited to, using the API in products or Services that are sold or licensed."
  consequence: >-
    Commercial use without consent may result in immediate blocking of API access and potential
    legal consequences.

  agent_note: >-
    This is the material commercial fact about this provider and it is easy to miss because the API
    is free and keyless. An agent or product that monetises anything built on Nekosia needs written
    permission first; there is no self-serve commercial tier to buy instead.

  note: >-
    A Ko-fi link is published in the site footer and in the GitHub repositories' FUNDING.yml. This
    is voluntary support for the project, not a paid plan, and it buys no additional API capacity.
