Expert adds custom reports, a CRM integration, and a dedicated analyst; contact sales for its price.

  • The free plan includes 20 name identifications (lookups) per day and a daily allowance of plain-English company and people searches; more need AI Plus or AI Pro.
  • AI Plus removes the daily caps on plain-English questions and name lookup in the API, CLI, and MCP server, and adds link search, page reads, competitor, provider, and investor-activity questions, saved lists, unlimited search results, and industry briefs. Its research requests fill or refresh a company or person profile, including its Analysis tab.
  • Pay-as-you-go top-ups: credit packs of $25, $50, $100, and $250. Overage unit prices: company research $2.50, person research $0.65, profile view $0.025, web search $0.025.
  • The same sign-in works on the website, the iPhone, iPad, and Mac apps, the CLI (aventure, npm @aventurevc/aventure-cli), and the MCP server (@aventurevc/mcp-server, hosted at https://mcp.aventure.vc/mcp).

What Counts

  • Company and person profile views count one view per record, per calendar month (UTC). Reading the same record again that month is free.
  • Company brand lookups count one brand view per company, per calendar month (UTC), on a separate allowance from profile views; the company brand lookup lists each plan’s amount.
  • Web searches count one each.
  • Plain-English searches have no monthly allowance. The free plan includes a daily allowance of them; past it, they answer 402 with code subscription_required. Every plan is also rate-limited per account: a 429 with limitType NATURAL_SEARCH means wait the Retry-After seconds, not upgrade.
  • Research requests count against the allowance for adding or updating a company or person. Research requires an entitled eligible paid subscription. Prepaid credit only extends that subscription’s allowance with additional usage turned on; it does not grant research access to Essential (free).
  • Features outside your plan, such as link search or page reads on the free plan, answer 402 with code subscription_required. Prepaid credit does not unlock paid-only link search or page reads.

Allowances reset at the start of each calendar month (UTC).

When You Reach a Limit

When an allowance runs out, the API answers 429 with code billing_allowance_exhausted. The message names the limit you reached and how to upgrade. Upgrade in either of two places:

  • Website: subscription settings shows your plan, your usage, and every plan you can move to.
  • CLI: aventure billing plans list lists plans with monthly and annual prices. aventure billing plan-changes create --plan <plan> upgrades a paid plan using the card already on file. From the free plan, aventure billing checkout-sessions create --plan <plan> returns a checkout link where you enter a card.

Over MCP, your assistant can list aVenture plans, but it cannot change your plan; upgrade on the website or with the CLI.

If an upgrade needs a payment you have not made yet, the response includes a payment link to finish it. On plans that offer additional usage, you can turn it on so requests continue past the allowance up to a spending cap you set.
