Which license do I need?

Choose by who benefits from the work and where World Monitor data will appear:

Your usePlan license
You use World Monitor for your own research, learning, investing, or decisionsPro — Personal license
One licensed user uses the dashboard, exports, MCP, or SDK for company work, client analysis, reports, presentations, or their own internal workflowPro Business — Commercial license
Your organization calls the API from private systems, dashboards, automations, or internal toolsAPI Starter — Commercial license for your organization
Your organization displays, embeds, or delivers API outputs inside a product or service used by customersAPI Business — Commercial license for your customers
You need higher-volume redistribution, additional seats, white-labeling, a standalone data feed, or a custom deploymentEnterprise — Custom agreement

Pro Business permits normal client deliverables such as analysis and reports; it does not permit a live customer-facing data product. API Starter crosses the programmatic boundary inside your organization; it does not cross the customer boundary. API Business crosses that customer boundary when World Monitor data is part of a product or service with its own material value, but it does not permit raw-data resale, shared API access, or a standalone substitute for World Monitor.

World Monitor attribution is optional in reports, presentations, and derived analysis permitted by your plan. If you choose to credit us, "Source: World Monitor" or "via World Monitor" is sufficient. Source-specific notices supplied with an output still apply.

These are subscription licenses for the hosted Service and its outputs. They are separate from the AGPL-3.0-only platform source-code license and the MIT licenses on the official thin clients. See the Terms of Service for the full scope, restrictions, examples, and post-cancellation rules.

What each plan includes

  • Free — 56 map layers (all free except Resilience, which is Pro), 500+ curated feeds backed by 536+ observed upstream hosts, country briefs, hotspots, instability scores, chokepoints, cascade analysis, breaking alerts, and watchlists, across 3 dashboard tabs. Dashboard refresh cadence is typically 5–15 minutes.
  • Pro — everything in Free, plus WM Analyst chat across 30+ live services with citations, Scenario Engine, Route Explorer, personal AI digest (daily / twice-daily / weekly via Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, webhook), custom widget builder (10 custom dashboards), the Resilience map layer, 500 dashboard-AI requests/day, and MCP access (63 tools under one key, 50 calls/day). Personal license.
  • Pro Business — the Pro dashboard licensed for work: everything in Pro, plus a commercial license covering client work, internal tools and reporting, data export (CSV, JSON, and PDF reports), 25 custom dashboards, 2,500 dashboard-AI requests/day, MCP + SDK at 250 calls/day, and priority support. Pro and Pro Business are separate products rather than a self-serve plan change — cancel Pro in the billing portal, then start the Pro Business checkout; Pro access runs to the end of the term already paid for.
  • API Starter — programmatic access: REST API with structured JSON and cache headers, official SDKs (npm, PyPI, RubyGems, Go), self-serve license / API keys (the wm_ key the desktop app asks for — see API keys), real-time data streams, and webhook notifications (5 rules on Starter). Commercial license for your own organization; redistributing the data to your customers requires API Business.
  • API Business — the high-volume API tier for teams: everything in API Starter with redistribution rights (embed our data in what you sell), 300 requests/minute and 10,000 requests/day, 5 Pro licenses included, and priority support. Monthly owners can self-serve the owner-plus-four same-domain team seats; the annual plan does not expose that manager yet, so contact support for its current included-seat handling. Starter customers upgrade from the billing portal (prorated immediately).
  • Enterprise — everything in Pro and API, plus team workspaces, SSO/MFA/RBAC, dedicated support, white-label and embeddable panels, SIEM connectors, bulk export, and cloud / dedicated-tenant / on-premises / air-gapped deployment.

Limits & overage

Rate limits are hard limits by default: exceeding a plan quota returns HTTP 429 with Retry-After and X-RateLimit-* headers. Usage above quota is rejected — never silently charged. Per-endpoint budgets: Rate Limits.

Need a higher limit? Upgrade at worldmonitor.app/pro or contact [email protected].
