At Elite ($5,000 for 10 million) a multi-source record falls to $0.01. Agentic Search costs 20 or 100 credits, roughly $0.29 or $1.43 at Pro. Every plan price is public, and annual billing saves 10 per cent from Starter. The MCP asks before large pulls and reports credits in every response. The trial is 7 days and 2,000 credits, and a 30 September check says it takes a card. Contact enrichment starts at Pro, though the pricing table was ambiguous between Pro and Premium. Four because unit costs are public and charged on success, with a card-gated trial and a 20-fold per-record spread to watch."
