API & MCP
Usage and limits
Know what counts, when capacity returns and how to recover without unexpected charges.
Your plan’s allowance
A new summary for one market uses one unit. Your app and AI assistant show how much remains and when more becomes available.
Your plan includes the same followed markets as in pricing and billing: Free 1, Starter 2, Core 5, Pro 10, and Publisher every market. Every plan includes all published durations. Each forecast request reads one market, up to 6 durations and 72 forecasts. MCP and preparing a conversation are included in every plan; REST API is included in Pro and Publisher.
| Allowance | Free MCP | Starter MCP | Core MCP | Pro API + MCP | Publisher API + MCP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| New summaries per rolling 24 hours | 5 | 20 | 60 | 120 | 600 |
| Per rolling 7 days | 20 | 100 | 300 | 600 | 3,000 |
| Per rolling 30 days | 60 | 300 | 900 | 1,800 | 9,000 |
| Markets per forecast request | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Connections and tokens | 1 | 1 | 1 | 5 | 20 |
| Requests per minute | 5 | 5 | 5 | 20 | 60 |
| Burst capacity | 2 | 2 | 2 | 5 | 15 |
| Private requests at once, per connection | 2 | 2 | 2 | 5 | 15 |
What uses an allowance
Preparing an AI conversation shares the same request and summary allowances as MCP and API. The app shows the remaining 24-hour, 7-day and 30-day allowances beside the conversation button. Copying a prepared conversation again makes no data request; unchanged summaries count once across conversations, connections and languages.
The same selection of unchanged data is counted once across API and MCP, even if you retry. A new price or prediction, or a different selection, can count as a new summary. Viewing a market in the Kunkafa app does not use this allowance.
Check before retrying
Limits follow rolling 24-hour, 7-day and 30-day periods. Capacity returns as earlier usage leaves each period. You receive notices at 80% and at the limit, with a retry time. There are no automatic overage charges.
The 24-hour, 7-day and 30-day limits apply together and are shared across all your followed markets. For example, Free allows up to 5 new summaries in 24 hours, 20 in 7 days and 60 in 30 days—not 5 every day regardless of earlier usage. These are rolling periods, not calendar resets or billing renewal dates.
