Clarivate Plans Pricing

Clarivate publishes NO money price for any API. Every plan below is an entitlement tier attached to a Web of Science, InCites or product subscription, and the published numbers are request allowances, not prices — the portal states plainly that "the plans are not visible during the subscription process" for the Expanded API and that Clarivate configures the tier from the institution's contract. The one plan anyone can obtain without a subscription is the Web of Science Starter API Free Trial Plan at 50 requests/day. This file replaces a 2026-05-04 scaffold that invented Free / Professional / Enterprise tiers with 1,000 and 100,000 request quotas; none of those values existed at Clarivate.

Clarivate Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Clarivate on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.

It defines 13 plans, covering freemium and entitlement tiers, with named plans including Free Trial Plan, Free Institutional Member Plan, Free Institutional Integration Plan, Basic, Intermediate, and 8 more.

Tagged areas include Analytics, Bibliometrics, Citations, Data, and Drug Pipeline.
