The New York Times Plans Pricing
The New York Times Developer Network exposes a free public set of APIs (Article Search, Top Stories, Most Popular, Books, Movies, Archive, Times Wire, Semantic, Geo) for non-commercial use, behind a registered app key. Commercial / redistribution use requires a separate agreement with The New York Times. The developer.nytimes.com docs were not reachable from this environment at reconciliation time, so concrete current quotas are not transcribed here.
