Questions
Still not sure? Email hello@theyknew.io.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. Cancel from your account settings in one click. No questions asked, no hoops. You keep access until the end of your current billing period.
What payment methods do you accept?+
All major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and SEPA Direct Debit for European customers. Payments are processed securely by Stripe — we never see your card details.
Do you offer refunds?+
Pro comes with a 7-day free trial — cancel before it ends and you pay nothing. For Newsroom and Research, we offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on your first invoice if you're not satisfied. Just email us.
Is there a free trial?+
Yes. Pro includes a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. Newsroom and Research tiers include a 14-day money-back guarantee. Free tier is, well, free forever.
Can I upgrade or downgrade?+
Anytime. Upgrades are prorated and take effect immediately. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period so you keep what you paid for.
Is the API free to try?+
Newsroom includes a 14-day money-back guarantee — so yes, effectively you can test the API risk-free for two weeks. If you're building something serious and want a sandbox first, email us and we'll set one up.
What counts as an API request?+
One HTTP call to any endpoint = one request. Bulk endpoints (e.g. /claims/bulk) count as one request regardless of how many items you fetch, up to the tier's bulk limit. WebSocket subscriptions don't count against your hourly quota.
