Independent Historical Archive Terms

Terms for independent historical archive retrieval, credential protection, request limits and invoice payments at $1 per 1000 successful requests.

Archive scope and account responsibility

This service provides an independent historical Reddit archive, not an official product or live feed. It does not provide posting, voting, private messaging or Reddit OAuth. Responses are flat records without guaranteed complete conversation trees. Availability, exhaustive coverage, record permanence and identical future query results are not guaranteed. You must respect applicable law and third-party rights when using or publishing retrieved content. Public source material does not establish that every proposed reuse is legally permitted.

Pricing, credits and payment terms

Each successful retrieval, including an empty result, costs one credit at $1 per 1000 requests. The minimum paid top-up of $50 buys 50000 credits. There is no subscription and paid credits do not expire. The conditional 100-credit trial depends on network-wide anti-abuse eligibility. Invalid requests do not debit; upstream failures refund reservations. A successful retry after a lost client response costs another credit. /v1/status is public and uncharged, without checking search or archive availability.

Credentials and invoice workflow

Protect your email account, password and API key. Signup displays the key once before payment; regeneration requires sign-in and password confirmation and immediately invalidates the old key. Password reset and emailed keys are not provided. Keys and balances belong to this domain. For payment, create an invoice after signing in, use its exact token, network, recipient and amount, then submit the transaction hash for verification. Only a confirmed genuine transfer adds credit, without a fixed completion time. Bounded pagination does not guarantee complete research datasets.
