> **For coding agents and LLMs:** This is one Social Fetch marketing page (markdown export). For API orientation start with [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt); for auth and crawl rules use [`/agents.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/agents.txt); for every operation use [`/llms-endpoints.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms-endpoints.txt). ## This page - **On-site (HTML):** - **Markdown (.mdx) URL:** --- # How much does the Medium API cost? 1 credit per completed request on most routes and 2 for the sitemap index. Each page of a sitemap is a separate request. A temporary 503 is not billed. `meta.creditsCharged` on every response is the billing source of truth.
