Sorry for the late response, but I had a question:
Do you guys have a free & reliable version of this tool, or can you recommend any?
On your pricing page of the website, it says that the tool has API access in the free tier. That is very deceptive

I agree.
Hi @junaid9211,

Yes, as it says: "Free Tier - Usage before 500 businesses" It provides 500 places/500 reviews every 30 days.
Can you please elaborate on why it is deceptive?
If you are a new user or want to use API, the platform might ask you to deposit a minimum amount of credits. Especially if you created a few accounts from the same email/IP, or you are using disposable emails. This helps us to validate your account and prevent misuse of the free tier.
I hope it does make sense.
Thank you!
In case you need to test the API without any commitments (adding payment method or minimal amount of credits), you might consider attending a test-drive program.
