Can I get Coresignal spend per day from the API?

Not as a series. Derive it from how much the balance drops each day, ignoring top-ups.

Company data

How to get your Coresignal API usage, balance and spend programmatically

Coresignal has no balance endpoint. Remaining credits come back in the x-credits-remaining header on API responses. Argus reads it from an es_dsl search, which costs no credits.

What the Coresignal API exposes

Signal	Coresignal
Balance	Yes
Spend history	No
Cost breakdown	No
Plan and quota	No
Cost on each response	No
Rate-limit headers	None
Credential	API key

Call it yourself

Credential. A Coresignal API key, sent in an apikey header (not Bearer).

Balance from headers

curl -i -X POST https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/search/es_dsl \
  -H "apikey: $CORESIGNAL_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":{"term":{"id":1}}}'

x-credits-remaining: 1960

Trimmed to the fields Argus reads. Values are examples.

Gotchas

Coresignal's docs confirm the header on collect and enrich responses. They don't say whether free search responses carry it.
Collect and Search are separate credit pools. Multi-source company and employee records cost 2.

How Coresignal charges

Two credit pools — Collect (fetch/enrich a record) and Search (run a query); 1 credit each, multi-source Company/Employee = 2. Self-serve tiers + custom Datasets.

Premium	$1500
Enterprise / Datasets	Contact sales

Free allowance. 200 on signup. 7-day trial: 200 collect + 400 search credits.

At zero. 402 insufficient credits; 429 rate limit. Annual grants credits upfront.

18 requests per second, per key.

Or let Argus track it

Paste the key once. Argus keeps the ledger, and your coding agent reads it through the MCP server.

Reads the Coresignal balance every hour and keeps the series, so you get burn per day (top-ups never count as negative spend) and days until it hits zero.
With the SDK, itemizes each call by endpoint and prices it at Coresignal's per-operation rates.
Emails you on low balance, days to zero, a spend spike, or projected overage.
Hands all of it to your coding agent over MCP, so it can ask what a run cost or how much runway is left without leaving the editor.
