    Frequently asked questions

    Is API pricing separate from my Scanr UI plan?
    Yes. API access is a standalone add-on. You can be on the free Starter UI plan and still subscribe to any API tier, or be on Super Pro and stay on the free Starter API tier. The two products are billed independently and have their own rate limits.
    Do API limits stack with my UI plan’s limits?
    No. API requests made with an API token (and through the MCP server) are metered against your API tier’s limits — not your UI plan’s per-session limits. They are completely separate buckets.
    What’s included in the MCP server access?
    Every API tier includes access to our MCP server with the same tools — scanning, natural-language scan, security search, market status, news, and trending stocks. AI tools on MCP are metered against your daily API-tier AI quota, shared with the REST AI scan endpoints. See the MCP docs for setup.
    Can I upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime?
    Yes. You can change your API tier or cancel at any time from your account billing portal. Upgrades take effect immediately with a prorated charge; downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period.
    What happens if I hit a rate limit?
    API responses include standard rate-limit headers (RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining and RateLimit-Reset) so you can back off gracefully. If you exceed the limit, you’ll receive a 429 response with a Retry-After header that says how many seconds to wait. AI-specific endpoints have their own daily quota (separate from the general request limits) because LLM calls are more expensive to serve.
    Do you offer custom or enterprise pricing?
    Yes — if the Business tier’s limits aren’t enough or you need custom terms, get in touch at [email protected].
    Where can I find the API documentation?
    Full reference docs are available at api-docs.scanr.ai. You can mint API tokens from your account settings.
