Pricing

Pay for what
you ship.

Versemark is six public-domain translations, concept search, cross-references, and a JSON shape you'll actually enjoy parsing. Commercial use is included on the free tier. The competition charges $10/month per translation just to ship.

Questions

Things people ask

Can I really use the free tier in a commercial product?

Yes. KJV and ASV are public-domain in the United States. You can ship them in a paid app, an ad-supported site, or anywhere else without owing us — or anyone else — a license.

What happens when I hit my monthly cap?

Requests return a 429 with a Retry-After header pointing at the next period reset. Upgrade and the cap lifts within seconds.

Do you do annual pricing?

We will. For now, monthly only — paying yearly would just trap you in our pricing if we change it.

What if I just want to test things out?

Start free — 30 req/min, 2,500 requests a month, KJV and ASV. Plenty for a prototype or a side project.
