  Similarweb publishes NO list price for API access. All three tiers below are named on the
  provider's own API page and pricing collateral, but every one of them routes to "contact
  sales" — there is no self-serve API checkout, no published per-credit rate and no
  published credit allocation. The tier names and their gating (API access is included in
  Business and Enterprise, or bought as a standalone API package) are the provider's own
  words, verbatim from the API page FAQ. Any dollar figure in this file is a range
  observed in the market, not a Similarweb-published price, and is labelled as such.
name: SimilarWeb API Plans & Pricing
description: >-
  SimilarWeb API pricing is based on a data credit model — customers pay for
  the data returned, not simply for API calls made. API access is available
  as part of Business and Enterprise platform plans, or as a standalone API
  package. Pricing is customized based on endpoint access, data credit volume,
  number of users, and contract term. Public list prices are not published;
  prospective customers must request a quote from the sales team.

notes:
  - Data credits are consumed per API call based on the endpoint and data volume returned.
  - Use the Request Validate endpoint to estimate credit cost before executing large queries.
  - No credits are charged for rate-limit errors (HTTP 429).
  - Credit quotas reset monthly.
  - >-
    UNPUBLISHED PRICE. A commonly cited range of roughly $500/month at entry level to
    $20,000+/month for high-volume enterprise use is a market observation, NOT a
    Similarweb-published figure. Similarweb lists no price for API access anywhere on its
    site.
  - All plans require contacting the SimilarWeb sales team for a custom quote.
  - >-
    Credit cost formula published by the provider: number of domains x endpoint price x
    granularity x number of country filters x historical range x number of results
    requested.
  - >-
    Up to 7 years of historical data is available across all data types, with the exact
    range set by the subscription; confirm it per account with the Check Capabilities
    operation.
  - MCP server calls draw on the same data credits as REST calls.
