How to Upgrade Your API Plan
Changing your API plan is self-service and takes effect right away — no sales call, no separate checkout page. You pick a new plan in the Land Insights app and confirm; billing is handled automatically.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- You need a Land Insights Pro subscription. The API tab only appears once you’re on Pro.
- Moving up to Starter or above is also what unlocks direct REST API access. On Free, you can still use the MCP server.
Upgrade in four steps
Section titled “Upgrade in four steps”- Open Settings in the Land Insights app and go to the API tab.
- On the Your API Plan card, click See Other API Plans.
- In the Choose your plan panel, find the plan you want and click Upgrade.
- Review the details and click Confirm upgrade.
That’s it. Upgrades take effect immediately — your new token allotment is available right away, and if you moved up to a paid plan, you can start calling the REST API as soon as you’ve created a key.
Get an API key
Section titled “Get an API key”Moving up to Starter or above unlocks the REST API. To call it, create a key on the same API tab:
- In the API keys card, click Create API key.
- Give it a label you’ll recognize later — like
ProductionorLocal dev. - Copy the key when it’s shown. You only see it once — store it somewhere safe. If you lose it, revoke it and create a new one.
Send the key on every request in the Authorization header. See
Authentication for the details.
Downgrading
Section titled “Downgrading”Switching to a smaller plan works the same way — pick the lower plan and click Schedule downgrade. Two things to know:
- Downgrades take effect at your next renewal, not immediately. You keep your current plan’s tokens and access until then.
- A scheduled change shows a Scheduled to switch to… banner. Change your mind? Click Cancel change any time before the renewal to stay put.
Already on Enterprise Max?
Section titled “Already on Enterprise Max?”That’s the top plan. If you need more than its 4,000,000 monthly tokens, reach out to support right inside the app and we’ll help you out.
