Colorfulclouds Plans Pricing
Caiyun Weather API uses a tiered + usage-based commercial model administered through the Caiyun Open Platform (platform.caiyunapp.com). A free developer tier permits roughly 400 calls/day and caps daily forecasts at 3 days; paid tiers extend daily forecasts to 15 days, raise hourly steps to 360, unlock the precipitation map raster, and lift the per-token quota in bands negotiated through the platform. Detailed per-tier numbers are published on the operator console and via business contact; pricing marked here is the publicly documented free tier plus the documented enterprise model. Pricing should be reconfirmed with sales before commit.
