  The Placekey identifier itself is free and open to use. The Placekey API is
  offered on a free plan plus annual paid tiers (Silver, Gold, Enterprise) that
  scale by lookup volume. The free plan provides up to 10,000 lookups per day
  with email support; paid plans raise annual lookup allowances and add bulk
  upload and faster support SLAs.
notes: >-
  Tier names, annual lookup allowances, and prices reflect publicly listed
  Placekey API pricing and are subject to change; verify on the Placekey
  pricing page during reconciliation.
