Pricing

Frontrun has three plans: Free to start, Pro for the full network plus API + MCP access, and Max with 4x the usage of Pro, full history and the Stealth + Accelerator lanes.

Plans

One monthly usage allowance covers chat, outreach, founder and funding enrichment, exports and the API. Monthly usage does not roll over - it resets at the start of each billing period. Top-ups never expire.

What each plan includes

Free - $0, no card

• A snapshot of your sectors and the database for your sectors over the last 7 days
• The top 25 open, one weekly report, limited chat
• No custom accounts, founders hidden, no API or MCP

Pro - $99/mo

• The full network: 5,000+ tracked accounts, in real time
• The Frontrun Report daily, plus custom reports
• 100 custom accounts of your own
• Founder and fundraising lookups
• 2,000 export rows a month
• API + MCP access (Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop)
• Monthly usage across chat, outreach, enrichment and the API (resets monthly), with a daily usage cap that stops runaway agents
• 300 requests/minute
• 7-day free trial - card on file, cancel anytime before it converts; API keys work during the trial

Max - $199/mo

• Everything in Pro
• 4x the usage and API calls of Pro
• Full history of the database
• 500 custom accounts
• 5,000 export rows a month
• No trial - Max starts when you pay. On Pro already? Upgrading swaps your plan in place: unused Pro time is credited and the difference is charged today
• The stealth founder and accelerator lanes, in the app and over the API: GET /v1/people, GET /v1/accelerators, the people / accelerators webhook events and the matching MCP tools

Enterprise

• Custom usage allowance
• Custom rate limits, dedicated support, SLA

What uses usage

Data and enrichment calls draw on your monthly usage; heavier calls (company deep-dives, founder intelligence, convergence, thesis search) use more than light ones (search, sectors, snapshots). Several expensive calls are free when they find nothing: convergence, thesis search, classify, company founders, funding and signals, and similar accounts.

Free operations

Check how much of this period's usage you have used anytime with GET /v1/status (free).

Top-up packs

Out of usage before the period ends? Buy a top-up from the developer page. Top-ups never expire and are spent after your monthly allowance runs out.

Prices are shown on the developer page. If you keep running out on Pro, Max is the better deal.

Auto-refill

Opt in to auto-refill and Frontrun automatically adds a top-up whenever your usage runs low - so long-running agents never stall on a 402. Configure (or pick a different pack) from the developer page. If a refill payment fails, auto-refill is disabled and you're notified.

Which plan should I pick?

"I just want to try it" → Free. No card: a snapshot of your sectors and one weekly report. Or start Pro's 7-day free trial for the whole thing, API included.

"I'm using this for real" → Pro. Monthly usage covers a daily driver: feed, new follows and convergence checks plus regular company deep-dives - plus the full network of 5,000+ tracked accounts, 100 custom accounts, and MCP access.

"I'm running agents" → Max. 4x the usage of Pro, full history, 500 custom accounts, plus the stealth and accelerator lanes.

"I need high volume or guarantees" → Enterprise. Custom rate limits, dedicated support.

How billing works

1. Subscribe or buy a pack - every plan includes monthly usage; packs top up any account
2. Monthly usage applied first - you spend your monthly allowance before any top-up
3. Monthly usage resets - unused monthly usage resets each billing period
4. Top-ups never expire - they stay on your account until used
5. Track usage - every charged response includes usage_pct and usage_resets_at
6. Out of usage - a 402 (out_of_usage) means this period's usage is used up; upgrade, top up or enable auto-refill
