Token Cost

Every billable request consumes tokens. The cost is fixed per endpoint and identical whether you call it over the REST API or as an MCP tool. Each response reports its exact cost in the X-Tokens-Used header.

The zero-cost rule

Empty results and errors cost 0 tokens. A search that matches nothing, a 404, a validation error, or a rate-limit 429 all report X-Tokens-Used: 0.

For list_comps, cost scales with the number of comps actually returned — a page of 50 comps costs 50 tokens, an empty page costs 0.

The skip trace tools (skip_trace_property_owner and skip_trace_owner) follow the same rule: a trace that finds no contact information returns matched: false and costs 0 tokens — you only pay the 20 tokens when contact information is found.

Dollar pricing and tiers

This page covers token costs, not dollars. For what each plan costs, how many tokens it includes, and overage rates, see API Plans — and How to Upgrade Your API Plan when you’re ready to move up. You can manage your plan any time under Settings → API in the Land Insights app.
