Plans
Gitcoin's public APIs are generally free to access with no formal pricing tiers for the core REST API (bounties, grants). The Gitcoin Passport Stamps API uses a tiered rate-limit model requiring an API key from the developer portal at developer.passport.xyz. Higher rate-limit tiers can be requested via a formal request form.
Plans is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Gitcoin on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 5 plans, with named plans including Free (Core API), Passport Tier 1, Passport Tier 2, Passport Tier 3, Passport Tier 4.
