Metrics Overview

Context7 tracks four key metrics to help you understand your usage patterns:

Search & Query Requests

The total number of API calls made to Context7:

  • Search Requests: Library search queries
  • Query Requests: Documentation retrieval calls

Query Tokens

The total number of tokens returned in API responses. This reflects how much documentation content you've retrieved.

<Tip>Search requests, Query requests, and Query tokens do not affect cost.</Tip>

Parsing Tokens

The total tokens processed when parsing private repository documentation (Pro and Enterprise only).

How it works:

  • Charged when adding a new private repository
  • Charged for changed content when refreshing
  • No charge for cached content when refreshing

Cost: $25 per 1M tokens

Total Cost

Your monthly cost in USD (Pro and Enterprise only).

Calculation:

Total Cost = Parsing Cost + Teamspace Cost

Parsing Cost = (Parsing Tokens / 1,000,000) × $25
Teamspace Cost = Number of Members × $7

Example:

  • Teamspace: 4 members
  • Parsing: 800K tokens this month
  • Cost: (800K / 1M × $25) + (4 × $7) = $20 + $28 = $48
