Flexible Infrastructure

Understanding Parallel Search Lanes

Throughput is defined by concurrency, not hourly limits. Your throughput depends on how many lanes you have.

Calculation Formula:

Throughput (RPM) = Lanes × (60s / 2s avg. latency)

Example: 2 Lanes ≈ 60 Requests Per Minute (3,600/hour).

Frequently Asked Questions

What are "Parallel Search Lanes"?

Unlike competitors who limit your "throughput per hour" (which blocks AI agents from working fast), we limit parallel connections. For example, the Standard Plan (2 Lanes) allows you to run 2 requests side-by-side constantly. Since an average request takes ~2s (including network & processing), you can process up to 60 requests per minute (3,600/hour) with the Standard Plan. This is built for "bursty" Agentic workflows.

How are credits consumed?

Standard Google/Bing Search: 1 credit per request. Reader API: 2 credits (standard mode) or 5 credits (bypass mode). Advanced features (like Anti-Poisoning or Bypass Mode) consume additional credits. See the "Detailed Credit Consumption Rules" table for a full breakdown. Tip: Always try standard mode first to minimize costs.

What is Reader API bypass mode?

Bypass mode uses enhanced network infrastructure to overcome access restrictions, with a 98% success rate. Add "proxy: 1" to enable it. Costs 5 credits vs 2 credits for normal mode. Use it only when normal requests fail to optimize costs.

Do credits expire?

Credits are valid for 6 months. You can use them whenever you need.

What payment methods are supported?

We support Stripe for credit card payments. Enterprise customers can contact us for invoice payments.

Can I get a refund?

We offer a full refund within 7 calendar days of payment, provided you have used no more than 10% of the total credits in your plan. Beyond this period or usage limit, all purchased credit packages are non-refundable.
