Important Notes

  • Credit consumption is based on the number of results: 1 credit for 1-10 results, 2 credits for 11-20 results, etc.
  • Credits are only deducted on successful searches
  • Single keyword: Advanced search with optional filters for precise results
  • Multiple keywords: Automatically activates batch mode for parallel searching
  • Too many keywords can hurt search relevance - it’s better to focus on 2-3 key terms rather than overloading the query.
  • All search parameters support both single strings and arrays for flexible searching
