Tell Hacker News: Pipl.com Silently adds a $500 monthly minimum for API Use

  • How much would you have spent per month without the minimum? If you’re going from $50-200 to $500 per month, that’s a significant hike. If you were spending $0-20, then they’ve decided to have different kinds of customers and I don’t think they are actually trying to get you to spend that much. It would’ve been nice to have been communicated that more nicely, of course.
