summary: >-
  Piknik publishes no API pricing page and no API plans: /pricing returns 404, llms.txt has no
  pricing entry, and developer tokens are self-issued from Settings -> Developer after a free account
  signup. The platform "does not process payments or handle transactions" (ToS 3). The API, MCP
  server and A2A agent are free to call within the agent-ethics rate tiers; bulk access, model
  training and redistribution require a separately negotiated written license (ToS 7A, price not
  published). The only published price on the site is a municipal services package, not an API tier.
