Pricing

Truscan is usage-based. There is no subscription and no per-seat fee. You are charged for the work each request actually does.

Rate card

Item	Price
`instant` search	$7.00 / 1k requests
`deep` search	$12.00 / 1k requests
`deep_reasoning` search	$15.00 / 1k requests
Additional result beyond 10	+$1.00 / 1k results
Content extraction	$1.00 / 1k pages

Every request includes 10 results at no extra charge. Only results past the tenth carry the additional rate.

The live card is served from GET /api/billing/pricing, generated from the same constants that bill a request, so what you read and what you pay cannot drift apart.

How a charge is built

A charge has a base and up to two additions:

total = tier base
      + (results beyond 10 × additional rate)
      + (pages enriched × extraction rate)

A deep search with limit: 25 and enrich: true costs:

Component	Units	Micro-dollars
`deep` base	1 request	12,000
Additional results	15	15,000
Content extraction	25 pages	25,000
Total		52,000 (`$0.052`)

Micro-dollars

All amounts are integers in micro-dollars to avoid floating-point rounding:

1 USD = 1,000,000 micro-dollars

Fields ending in _micros are always integers. Fields ending in _display are pre-formatted strings for showing to a person.

Quoting before you spend

POST /api/billing/quote prices an operation without charging for it:

curl https://api.truscan.co/api/billing/quote \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TRUSCAN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"operation": "search", "tier": "deep", "units": 1, "results": 25}'

{
  "success": true,
  "result": {
    "charge": {
      "operation": "search",
      "tier": "deep",
      "units": 1,
      "extra_results": 15,
      "base_micros": 12000,
      "extra_micros": 15000,
      "total_micros": 27000
    },
    "display": "$0.027"
  }
}

Cached searches are not billed. An identical query at the same tier is served from cache and costs nothing.
