Frequently asked questions
- Can I use the API in production from Day 1?
- Yes. After the $750 prepay you receive API keys and full documentation. Most integrators are in production within 3-5 business days.
- Is it compatible with React Native, Flutter, and SwiftUI?
- The API is pure REST - works from any stack. We provide example SDKs in Python (backend), Kotlin (Android), and Swift (iOS). Flutter and RN consume the REST API directly.
- How accurate is Swiss Ephemeris vs competitors?
- Swiss Ephemeris is the #1 library used by Astro.com, AstroSeek, and most serious apps. Arcsecond precision (1/3600 of a degree). Competitors with "AI astrology" use approximate lookup tables - visible difference in minor aspects.
- Can I resell the API to other developers?
- No. The backend license covers usage in your own app/platform. API resale requires a separate Enterprise plan. Contact us for that.
- What happens if I exceed the request limit?
- Soft throttling - excess requests return 429 with a Retry-After header. No surprise extra costs. If you consistently exceed the limit, upgrade to the Premium tier ($2,997).
- What payment methods do you accept?
- Payoneer · DolarApp · Galicia USD wire. No Gumroad, no LemonSqueezy. $750 prepay for $1,497 tier; $1,500 prepay for $2,997 tier.
