The API beta is live. Sign in at
noxint.ai/dashboard to mint a personal key
and fund data credits; paid REST and MCP calls settle for real. The
discovery surface never needed a key: run

right now and the contract answers. Launch status is the
ledger of what is on.The rate card
The card prices finished data, not API traffic. A price check costs one
cent, the same as a raw quote anywhere. A domain read costs three cents
because it is not a raw quote: it lands enriched with percentile context,
freshness clocks, and refusal semantics. A full
read costs five cents for
the situation across every domain plus the assessment. For calibration,
the going machine-payable rate for an enriched single-asset read elsewhere
starts at 0.05. read sits at half the market floor and replaces the pipeline, not
just the quote.
Depth is priced per operation: price then funding on the same asset is
1 + 3 = 4 credits. read already carries every domain headline, so read
first, then pay 3 for the one domain you need depth on.
The edge cases are explicit. An exhaustive-empty result charges one
materialization at the operation’s rate because the proof of absence is
itself information (an events call with zero events in range is an
answer); a truncated-empty result is free. A cache hit that returns data
costs the same as a fresh read. Following a cursor to the next page is a
new materialization and bills again.
Some outcomes cost nothing: all-refused results, failed batch items,
top-level errors, 304 Not Modified responses, and transport failures. A
refusal is free because you did not get data; that is the
refusal-before-fabrication rule showing up on your bill.
Reserve, then settle
Before any upstream work, the gateway reserves the query’s maximum possible charge: the operation’s rate times the number ofids you sent (at most
10), one list materialization, or rank.limit rows (default 10, maximum
50). After delivery, it settles the actual delivered count at the same rate
and charges only that. Data is returned only after settlement succeeds, so
the meter can never drift from reality.
For example, a read with 10 IDs reserves 50 credits. If only 7 assets
resolve, you are charged 35. The X-Credits-Charged response header
reports the real, settled charge on every call.
Rate limiting stays count-based, not price-based: a ten-asset batch spends
ten of your 60 per-minute rate units whatever the operation costs.
Polling without paying twice
Market-data responses carrynext_update_at and an ETag. The cheap loop
is: sleep until next_update_at, then re-request with If-None-Match. If
nothing changed, the answer is a 304 and costs zero. Filed equity data has
no update clock; it advances on the filings_indexed_through watermark
instead.
What data credits are, and are not
Data credits fund the API and MCP only. They are a separate class from chat credits. Holder flow and trial credits fund the web chat and cannot pay for API calls. If your balance cannot cover a call’s reserved maximum, the call returnsquota_exhausted before any work runs, and
details.credits_remaining reports what you actually have left (a nonzero
balance below the reservation still refuses): fail-closed, never
fail-into-debt.
You buy data credits as a pack from the console. Purchased credits expire
one year after they are granted.
