Grounder › Pricing

Pricing

One flat monthly price, and every page is one page - a search, a fetch, or each page deep_search reads. You only pay for pages we deliver.

^*Most of the web reads normally, and those pages cost you one page each like any other. A minority sit behind bot protection - conservatively, plan on about 1 in 4 - and reading those needs a heavier method that the free plan does not include. They still cost one page, not more; the free plan is told plainly when a page needs it rather than being handed an empty result.

How pages work

• A page is any single thing Grounder pulls from the web for you - a search's results, a page you fetch, or each page deep_search reads. A deep_search that reads five pages is five pages; a web_search is one.
• You only pay for pages we deliver. An empty search, a blocked or unreachable fetch, a page deep_search couldn't open - none of them count.
• Protected pages need a paid plan. Some sites sit behind a bot wall and come back as an error for everyone else; Grounder still gets them. They cost one page like any other, up to your plan's monthly allowance. On Free you're never silently charged for one - you get a clear prompt instead.
• Rate limits guard speed, not your budget. The burst number is how many calls you can fire at once, so an agent's fan-out finishes in one go; it refills at the per-minute rate.
• Pages reset each month. They don't roll over or stack.
