Credits & limits

How credits work on the Influesque MCP server, what the free trial includes, and the read-only boundaries of the tools.

Credits meter what you do through the connector (and the API). Browsing the app itself does not spend credits. The rules are simple.

Credits

  • 1 credit = 1 action. A search, a profile lookup, a sponsor lookup, or an audience pull each cost 1 credit.
  • Pagination costs per page. search_creators returns 25 results per page, and each page is 1 credit.
  • Two tools are free: list_niches and get_credits.

You can check your balance any time by asking your agent for your credit balance (it calls get_credits), or in the app under Settings -> API & MCP.

Plans

  • Free trial: 20 one-time credits you can spend through the connector.
  • Paid: 1,000 credits per month, included with your plan.
Current allowance

Your live balance and allowance are shown in the app under Settings -> API & MCP, which is always the source of truth if this changes.

Limits and boundaries

  • Read-only. The tools query data; there are no write actions (no adding to lists or campaigns).
  • Capped and rate limited. Results have per-request row caps, there is no bulk export, and the server is rate limited, so very rapid bursts are throttled. Add a short delay between requests in batch jobs.
  • No contact emails. The tools do not return creator contact emails. They stay in the app, which links out to the creator's website instead.
  • YouTube data. The dataset is YouTube creators, sponsors, and audiences.

When you run out of credits, calls return an "Out of credits" message. Top up or upgrade in the app under Settings -> API & MCP.
