This page covers credit consumption for the v2 APIs. For plan and billing details and pricing for other ADE tools, see Plans & Billing. All credit totals are rounded up to the nearest 0.1 credit.

Parse

The Parse v2 API uses complexity-aware pricing: each page’s credit consumption scales with the volume of content returned, so simpler pages consume fewer credits and denser pages consume more. Each page’s credit consumption is the sum of the two components below. Output characters are the characters in the returned markdown field, excluding the page-break and document-ID markers.
ComponentCredit Consumption
Page1 credit per page
Output characters0.5 credits per 1,000 output characters

Parse Jobs

Parse Jobs v2 uses the same complexity-aware per-page pricing as the Parse v2 API, with a service tier that sets the rate. Choose the tier with the service_tier field when you create a job; if you omit it, the job runs on the standard tier. The standard tier consumes half as many credits as the priority tier. The priority tier consumes credits at the same rate as the synchronous Parse v2 API.
ComponentPriorityStandard (default)
Page1 credit per page0.5 credits per page
Output characters0.5 credits per 1,000 output characters0.25 credits per 1,000 output characters
For how to set the tier, see Parse Asynchronously.

Extract

The Extract v2 API consumes credits based on the number of input and output characters. Input characters are the Markdown you send. Output characters are the characters in the returned extraction and extraction_metadata fields, excluding indentation whitespace.
ComponentCredit Consumption
Input characters1 credit per 2,500 characters
Output characters1 credit per 500 characters

Extract Jobs

Extract Jobs v2 uses the same character-based pricing as the Extract v2 API, with a service tier that sets the rate. Choose the tier with the service_tier field when you create a job; if you omit it, the job runs on the standard tier. The standard tier consumes half as many credits as the priority tier. The priority tier consumes credits at the same rate as the synchronous Extract v2 API.
ComponentPriorityStandard (default)
Input characters1 credit per 2,500 characters1 credit per 5,000 characters
Output characters1 credit per 500 characters1 credit per 1,000 characters

Zero Data Retention

Using Zero Data Retention (ZDR) with the ADE v2 APIs does not consume any additional credits.
