Limits. Very low unauthenticated rate limits. Demo and Pro keys increase RPM. Exact numbers change — check their docs.

Commercial. Paid plans for production volume and SLA.

Note. If unauthenticated calls start failing, register a demo key. Never expose a Pro key in a static site.

PureDevKit does not host or proxy these APIs. Pricing, rate limits, CORS, authentication, and JSON shapes can change without notice. Always confirm the current rules on the provider’s official documentation before you ship.
