Pricing
Priced like the tool it is
Every plan reads the same honest data layer; the difference is how much you can compose on top of it. Monthly prices shown; annual billing is available on both self-serve plans. Starter and Pro are self-serve by card; Enterprise and the Data tier are quoted and invoiced.

Trade & tariff data
A separate plane, priced separately
The four plans above cover the indicator platform. Applied tariff schedules, bilateral trade flows and tariff policy events are a distinct data product with its own API, sold on its own terms.
What you get
Data tier
- Applied tariff schedules from eighteen customs authorities, each at its own legal grain, plus a derived HS6 layer for cross-country comparison
- Bilateral trade flows from eleven reporting authorities, bitemporal, with mirror reconstruction for non-publishing countries, always flagged
- US tariff policy events linked to the official documents that created them
- A versioned dataset API: OAuth service accounts, immutable versions, bulk exports in CSV, NDJSON or Parquet, and a change feed to stay in sync
- Per-response coverage statements, standing gap disclosures and licence attribution on every read
Before you talk to anyone
Evaluate it in public
Discovery is keyless by design, so you can judge coverage and honesty before there is any conversation about price. No account, no sales call, no trial to request.
- Data status: every dataset's latest revision, coverage and freshness
- API documentation: the full contract, endpoint by endpoint
- Attributions: all 27 licence instruments and their terms
The Data tier sits outside self-serve checkout: pricing is set per engagement while the trade plane is in pilot, and billing is by invoice under a written agreement. Tell us the jurisdictions and products you need and we will quote against them.
Questions, answered plainly
Pricing FAQ
How do I get started?
Sign up, verify your email, and you're in: no invitation, no sales call. Every new account starts on the Free plan with the full Explorer. Sign up, verify your email, and you're in: no invitation, no sales call. Every new account starts on the Free plan with the full Explorer. Starter and Pro are self-serve: upgrade with a card from inside the app, change or cancel whenever you like, and your plan changes take effect immediately. Enterprise and the trade & tariff Data tier are quoted per engagement and invoiced directly, so those start with an email.
Is the underlying data included in the price?
Yes. The twenty-two sources we read, from the World Bank, IMF and UN agencies to ILOSTAT, FAO, Climate Watch, Ember, V-Dem, UCDP and the Global Carbon Budget, publish open data, and we pass it through with attribution and licenses intact (the full list is in the Terms). You are paying for the instrument (composition, benchmarking, attribution and disclosure), not for the public data itself.
Is this investment advice or financial analytics?
No. Portfolios here are composite statistical indices over development, economic and health indicators. Progress is measured in index points since a base year, and the platform deliberately never uses the language of financial returns. Nothing in it constitutes investment advice.
Is the trade and tariff data included in these plans?
No. The four plans above cover the indicator platform: Explorer, portfolios, custom indicators and the read-only API over that data layer. Applied tariff schedules, bilateral trade flows and tariff policy events are a separate data product with its own API, its own versioning and its own licence obligations, priced per engagement while it is in pilot. Discovery is keyless, so you can inspect coverage and freshness at data status before speaking to us.
What exactly is the Data API?
A read-only REST API over the same unified data layer the app uses: search the indicator catalog, list countries, pull observations for any indicator and country, and retrieve your published custom indicators computed on demand, identical to the chart in the app. Sub-annual series carry the same disclosed annualization rules (or can be served at native frequency). You authenticate with API keys you create and revoke in the app; each key is shown once and stored only as a hash. Available on Pro and Enterprise.
What happens to my portfolios if I downgrade?
Nothing is deleted. Everything you built stays yours: portfolios and custom indicators beyond the new plan's limit remain viewable and editable, you just can't create more until you're back within the limit. On the Free plan the Portfolio and Indicator Builder sections close entirely, but your work is preserved and reappears when you upgrade. API keys are kept too; they simply stop authenticating while your plan is below Pro.
Do you offer academic or public-sector pricing?
Yes. Universities, statistical offices and non-profit research groups qualify for discounted Pro plans. Mention your affiliation when you get in touch.
Can you onboard another data source for us?
Enterprise plans can sponsor new sources (for example OECD datasets). Onboarding includes frequency handling, where sub-annual series are annualized by disclosed, user-selectable rules, and orientation defaults reviewed with your team.
