Billing

Unit: per_search · unmatched results billed: no
LinkedIn's own search caps apply: about 1,000 profiles a day on a standard account.

The exact quote is returned by /v1/inspect before every call and held with headroom on execution. The quote is the price floor: if the provider's actual cost overruns it, the run bills the overrun at the same rate, never above the hold. The unused part of every hold is released.
