Updates: New API Plans, Checkout & Dashboard

22/08/2025

More accessible plans, a streamlined user experience, and a glimpse at future HRV support.

We're excited to share several updates to the VitalLens API platform, designed to improve your experience and make our technology even more accessible. These changes are a direct result of feedback from our community of developers and researchers.

Here's a look at what's new.

✨ More Flexible and Accessible API Plans

We've updated our pricing structure to better support projects of all sizes.

  • New Developer Plan: We're introducing a new Developer plan at just $19/month. This plan includes 200,000 frame credits, email support, and our SLA guarantee, making it a great starting point for building and testing your application.
  • Expanded Prepaid Options: For those who prefer one-time purchases, we've added new, more affordable prepaid tiers. Starting at just $39 for 250,000 credits, these plans offer a flexible way to use the API without a monthly subscription. Prepaid credits never expire.
  • Updated Free Plan: We've adjusted our Free plan to a new balance of 20,000 frame credits per month. This provides a fair and sustainable way for everyone to explore the platform, offering plenty of credits to test the API's capabilities thoroughly before upgrading.

💳 Instant Access with Self-Serve Checkout

To streamline how you access our paid plans, we've integrated Stripe Checkout. You can now subscribe to a monthly plan or purchase prepaid credits instantly, whenever you're ready. This allows you to get started with a paid plan in just a few minutes.

📊 Your New User Dashboard

After signing in, you'll find a new user dashboard waiting for you. This is your central hub for managing your VitalLens API account, where you can:

  • View your current plan details.
  • Track your frame credit usage for the current billing period.
  • Copy your API key and find quick-start code snippets.
  • Manage your billing details through the Stripe customer portal.

📈 What's Next: VitalLens 2.0 with HRV Support

We are also excited to share a glimpse of what's on the horizon: VitalLens 2.0.

The next generation of our rPPG model will introduce support for Heart Rate Variability (HRV), unlocking deeper physiological insights. We're happy to announce that HRV support will be available as a free upgrade for all paid plan subscribers upon release.
