## Free Tier

The Free tier gives you permanent, no-credit-card-required access to the core RetinaOS experience. You get unlimited access to the discovery feed and basic token pages, 10 AI queries per day, up to 3 active alerts, and 100 API requests per day.

Free is designed to give you real, immediate value before asking for anything. You can explore on-chain intelligence, set up initial alerts, and build familiarity with the platform at no cost — with no expiration date on your access.

## Pro Tier

Pro unlocks the full RetinaOS experience for active traders who use RetinaOS as a primary intelligence tool. Upgrading to Pro gives you:

* **Unlimited AI queries** — no daily cap on Cortex-powered analysis
* **Unlimited alerts** — monitor as many conditions as your strategy requires
* **Wallet following** — track and get notified about wallets you care about
* **Historical data access** — dig into token and wallet history for deeper research
* **Full Retina Wallet policy engine** — create and manage unlimited on-chain policies
* **10,000 API requests/day** with a rate limit of 60 requests/minute
* **Priority notifications** — get alerts delivered faster

Pro is priced in the \$15–30/month range, with exact pricing confirmed at launch.

## API Tier

The API Tier is usage-based pricing for developers, quantitative traders, and agent builders who need programmatic access to Robinhood Chain data at scale. It removes daily request caps entirely and provides custom per-minute rate limits negotiated for your specific use case.

All public API endpoints are available on API Tier, including historical data and AI summaries via the API.

See the [API Tier page](/plans/api-tier) for full details on pricing tiers, included endpoints, rate limit headers, and SLA terms.
