Top-up packs

Buy credits any time from the developer page. Top-up credits never expire and are spent after your monthly allowance runs out.

Pack	Price
4,000 credits	$12
10,000 credits - a full monthly refill, most popular	$25
25,000 credits (+25% bonus)	$50
60,000 credits (+50% bonus)	$100

Auto-refill

Opt in to auto-refill and Frontrun automatically adds 10,000 credits whenever your balance drops below 1,000 - 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" → Starter. The 7-day free trial covers the full web app - no API.

"I'm using this for real" → Pro. 10,000 credits/mo covers ~2,500 basic, ~625 signal, or ~166 deep-dive calls - plus the full web app, 250 tracked accounts, and MCP access. No trial; API unlocks immediately.

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

Monthly usage examples

Daily driver on Pro - web dashboard plus regular API calls

Usage	Calls/mo	Credits
Feed 2x/day	60	960
New follows 1x/day	30	480
Convergence 1x/day	30	1,800
Company deep-dives	15	900
Search	20	80
Total		~4,200 credits

Comfortably inside the 10,000 monthly allowance - no top-ups needed.

Agent on Pro - autonomous pipeline with MCP

Usage	Calls/mo	Credits
Feed hourly	720	11,520
Enriched follows 10x/day	300	4,800
Convergence 5x/day	150	9,000
Company deep-dives	200	12,000
Founder intelligence	100	10,000
Search + discover	200	6,400
Total		~53,700 credits

The monthly 10,000 covers the first chunk; top up with packs for the rest (a $100 pack adds 60,000 credits). Enable auto-refill so the pipeline never stops.

How billing works

Subscribe or buy a pack - Pro includes 10,000 credits/month; packs top up any account
Monthly credits applied first - Subscribers spend their monthly allowance before top-up balance
Monthly credits expire - Unused monthly credits reset each billing period
Top-up never expires - Credits you buy stay in your balance indefinitely
Track spend - Every charged response includes cost_credits and balance_credits
Out of credits - A 402 response means insufficient credits; top up or enable auto-refill
