Wolfram|Alpha Opens Up Paid API


Wolfram|Alpha, the very impressive fact engine, has announced their new API that will allow third-parties to access and display results from their database.

The API is priced out with three tiers:

  • Developer & Personal Use Plans
  • Small & Medium Business Plans (up to 750,000 requests per month)
  • Enterprise Plans (over a million requests per month)

The data within Wolfram|Alpha is rich and detailed, where many search engines, universities, businesses and individuals can benefit from on some level.

There have been rumors of a private API for a while now, some suspected a deal with Bing in the past.
