  YouScan publishes two plan tiers. Only STARTER carries a listed price; the "Unlimited"
  tier is quote-based behind a demo request. Critically for this catalog: API ACCESS IS NOT
  PART OF THE PRICED TIER. The pricing page lists "data export options and API access" only
  under the Unlimited (quote-based) plan, and the knowledge base states plainly that "API data
  access is available as a paid add-on. Please contact your Customer Success Manager or email
  us at support@youscan.io." So there is NO published price for API access at any tier.

    A developer cannot self-serve an API key. Access must be enabled on the account first;
    the key is then generated in My Settings -> API key.
