Pricing plan from the API

Hello,

I’d like to integrate the Open Route service API into my mobile application. I’ve done some research on the website: it’s all free.

Is there a limit on the number of requests?

Thank in advance

Hey,

have a look at our plans.

Best regards

Can you confirm that you can have an unlimited number of requests? without limitation?

Hey,

yes, if you set up your own openrouteservice instance in a local installation, then you are only restricted by your server and/or network capabilites.

When using our public API at api.openrouteservice.org, restrictions of the Standard Plan apply.

Best regards

Which pricing plan do I fall under if I want to use the API but only send addresses as waypoints, not coordinates? And not using my own server?

More specifically, how many requests can I have per month?

TIA! - John

Hey,

have a look at our plans at Heigit Account.
By default, Standard is available to anyone.

With this, you’d get 2000 daily /directions-requests, so ~60k per month.
Given that you want to work with addresses, not coordinates, you’d have to run every address through a /geocode-request first, of which you have 1000/day, so ~30k per month.

If your addresses are unique for every route you want to calculate, that would then also inhibit your ability for /directions-requests.

Best regards
