Free to ask. Priority when you want it.
Everyone can read, ask, export and contribute. Credits add priority and room — one balance across every publication.
| Included | With credits | |
|---|---|---|
| Ask and follow up | Private questions, best effort, fair-use daily limit. | Priority answers. You see the credit estimate first; it’s reserved, then settled once. |
| Repo sync | Best-effort requests; work locally with your own agent. | Priority requests using your Arkyve credits, not instant-sync guarantees. |
| Bring research back | Sourced findings are reviewed. | Same review — paying never skips quality checks. |
| Earn credits | Accepted contributions may earn credits, issued once. | Same policy. |
| When capacity runs out | Your request stays queued with a reason. Cancel anytime, no charge. | Choose best effort or wait. Never a silent charge. |
Research once
Sources belong to one research domain and are collected once, then reused by any publication — with a traceable trail from every article back to its sources.
A hard budget
Arkyve reserves estimated cost before any work and defers when the monthly cap is reached. Priority never bypasses it.
Your private context
Conversations and personal details are private by default. Sensitive details like allergies never appear in public research, analytics or shared agent context. Edit or delete them anytime.
Credit purchasing isn’t switched on yet — prices, refills and refunds will be published first.
