​
Credits System

HasData uses a credits-based pricing model because the complexity and cost of scraping varies. Some APIs and scrapers require more resources and cost more credits.
  • Successful Requests: Only successful requests consume credits. Failed or invalid requests will not result in a charge.
  • Credits per API Request: Different APIs have different costs. For example, the Google Maps API consume 5 credits per request, while a more complex service, such as Google SERP API, might consume 10 credits per request.
  • Credits per Scraper Job: Scraper Jobs also follow the credit model. Each row of data returned by a scraper consumes a set amount of credits (e.g., 1 credit per row).
You can track your credit consumption and remaining balance in the Dashboard. Credits are updated in real-time, so you can always see how many credits you’ve used and how much is left.

​
Concurrency

Concurrency refers to the number of simultaneous requests you can make to the API.
  • Free Users: Free accounts are limited to 1 concurrent request at a time.
  • Paid Users: Concurrency limits for paid users are defined by the plan you select.

​
Exceeding Concurrency Limits

If you exceed your concurrency limit, the API will return a 429 Too Many Requests response, indicating that you’ve hit the maximum number of concurrent requests allowed.

​
Scaling Concurrency

To increase your concurrency limit, upgrade your plan. For custom limits, contact support to discuss your needs.

​
Monitoring & Notifications

You’ll receive real-time notifications when your credits are running low. To monitor credit consumption and concurrency usage programmatically, use the /user/me/usage endpoint. 
curl --location --request GET 'https://api.hasdata.com/user/me/usage' \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --header 'x-api-key: <your-api-key>'
Response: 
{
   "status": "ok",
   "data": {
      "totalCredits": 10000000,
      "availableCredits": 5473702,
      "concurrentRequests": 0,
      "availableConcurrency": 100
   }
}
