Integrate DailySand's cross-sector intelligence into AI agents and applications via our REST JSON API or MCP server. Paid tiers unlock aggregate rollups and weekly synthesis.
| Tier | Price | Limits | Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anonymous | Free | 50 / day, 5 / min (per IP) | Latest digest, archive digest, MCP list/recent |
| Free (API key) | Free | 500 / month, 10 / min | All public REST + MCP except aggregate & weekly |
| Developer | $29 / mo | 10,000 / month, 60 / min | All REST + MCP including aggregate & weekly insight |
| Pro | $99 / mo | Unlimited (fair use), 300 / min | All endpoints + future webhooks / SLA |
Rate limits apply when API monetization guardrails are enabled (API_MONETIZATION_ENABLED=true).
Self-serve checkout provisions an API key immediately after payment. Use test mode keys during development.
Pass your API key in the Authorization header:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ds_live_YOUR_KEY" \ "https://dailysand.com/api/digest/aggregate?days=30"
OpenAPI spec: /openapi.json · MCP docs: /mcp
Clients that support HTTP headers can authenticate MCP tool calls with your API key:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dailysand": {
"url": "https://dailysand.com/api/mcp",
"transport": "http",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ds_live_YOUR_KEY"
}
}
}
}Claude Desktop may not support custom headers on all transports — use the REST API or a proxy if your environment cannot send Bearer tokens to MCP.
