Cool idea. The pricing model reminds me of my time working in algorithmic trading, haha. I'll try this out for some queries I wanted to run.
I suppose the scraping you're doing is a huge part of your value proposition, but I would like to gently nudge you in the direction of making the datasets available via p2p (e.g. a torrent) like how Wikipedia distributes its snapshots in the spirit of democratizing access to data that is becoming increasingly walled off. Also, I think another potential benefit that kind of bulk sharing would have is relieving the congestion from those doing the equivalent operation to extract data via the querying interface.
Please have a 'readable version' option so I don't have to exhaust myself parsing the sites layout. I get that it's unique but most of us just want to work out what you're offering in 5-10 seconds of our time.
Pricing model is hard to understand at a glance. It uses a term "second of query time" which is not a conventional term and not defined anywhere. Also, all pricing related pages seem to be LLM-generated and are hard to read for a human.
Please, just explain in your own words, how the pricing works, without using made up terms invented by an LLM.
This is a very good thing, thanks! Have you talked with any of the smaller search engines like Kagi, Qwant, Brave, Mwmbl, DDG, etc to have this supplement the quality of their results? This seems like a big step towards breaking Google and Bing's dominance in search.

I strongly second this, although I must admit it loaded surprisingly fast for me as I'm on a mobile hotspot in the back of a car.
HN: This site looks like all the other slop, awful to read.

It's beautiful <3

that's a good idea. it's very doable
Congestion pricing for queries sounds innovative.
