Getting started

Access tiers

Free, Builder, Pro and Commercial — plus anonymous x402 pay-per-call. Your key's tier decides which surfaces you can reach, how fresh the data is, and your rate limit.

Live spread OPENs are deliberately gated

We operate the live detection ourselves — selling un-delayed spread OPEN frames would erode that edge. Builder and Pro clamp the minimum delay on /v1/spreads/live to 60s; fully-live access is a Commercial conversation, never self-serve. Every other family streams live on Builder and up.

The tiers

  • x402 — anonymous pay-per-call on delayed REST snapshots, history and agent queries. No account.
  • Free — delayed REST, prices, metadata, limited recent/sample events. For evaluation and prototyping.
  • Builder — REST + MCP + WebSocket, live funding/splash/prices, delayed spreads, basic webhooks. For bots and small products.
  • Pro — higher limits, deeper event history, more MCP usage, full webhooks, internal production license. For serious builders and quant research.
  • Commercial / Enterprise — commercial production, team keys, support, custom limits and history, redistribution and real-time spread access by negotiation.
