One meter: requests we make to music streaming services on your behalf. No per-seat fee, no per-user fee, no charge for transfers that fail to match. Volume discounts apply automatically as buckets fill.

Not metered
Authentication redirects, dashboard seats, webhooks, sandbox traffic and support. Only requests that leave us for a music service are counted.
02 · What counts as a request
Core meters one side. Switch meters both.
The difference is who talks to the destination. With Core that's you, against your own platform, so we never see it. With Switch we run the whole transfer, source and destination — so both sides are on the meter.

03 · Estimate
Work out your month.
Set your expected monthly transfers. We model a typical listener at around 2,000 songs — roughly 60 source requests to read their library, plus about 120 destination requests if we're writing it too.
One transfer ≈ 60 source requests
Based on a typical 2,000-song library: paged reads of playlists, albums, likes and track metadata.
Switch adds ~120 more
On the destination side we spend one request to match each song and one to add it — those only appear on Switch.
Buckets reset monthly
Volume accumulates within a calendar month, and rates step down automatically as buckets fill.

04 · The fine print, in plain words
Questions procurement always asks.
What exactly is one request?
One HTTP call from us to a music streaming service — reading a page of playlists, fetching a track, creating a playlist entry. Calls to our own API are never metered.
Does a failed match cost anything?
The read that found no match counts, because we made it. A provider error we retry does not — those retries are on us.
How does the minimum work?
We bill the greater of your metered usage and €500. There's no rollover: an unused month doesn't credit the next one.
Can we mix Core and Switch?
Yes. Many customers ship Switch to get live, then move high-volume flows onto Core. Both feed one meter and one invoice.
Are there overage penalties?
None. Rates only ever go down as you cross buckets, and there's no cap on volume in bucket 3.
What about annual commitments?
Above 25M requests a month we'll price a committed-volume contract with a custom floor rate. Talk to sales.
Start on sandbox. Pay when you go live.
Sandbox requests aren't metered and the €500 minimum starts on your first production call. Annual commitments and custom floors are available above 25M requests a month.
