For subscribers
Step-by-step walkthroughs for people using PostGrad — from sign-up through your first API call to running PostGrad inside your agent.
These walkthroughs cover the full subscriber journey: signing up, picking a plan, subscribing to a feed, getting your API key, and wiring PostGrad into your agent over either the REST API or MCP. Each walkthrough has screenshots + narration captured against the live product.
Getting set up
- Sign up + pick your plan — Create an account, pick Starter / Pro / Scale, complete checkout.
- Get your first API key — Create a key in your dashboard, copy it once (you can't see it again), store it safely.
- Subscribe to a paid feed — Browse the marketplace, subscribe to a feed, see it show up in My Feeds.
Querying PostGrad
- Make your first API call — A curl walkthrough hitting
/api/v1/knowledge/searchagainst your subscribed feed. - Connect PostGrad to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor via MCP — The two-minute MCP setup for popular agent clients.
- Understand the three search modes — When to use
keywordvssemanticvshybrid. All three modes are available on every tier; pick by query shape.
Day-to-day
- Handle errors gracefully — What 401, 403, 429, and 5xx mean from PostGrad, and how your agent should respond.
- Enable and manage notifications — In-app + email alerts for feed updates, quota warnings, and billing events.
- Upgrade or downgrade your tier — Move between Starter / Pro / Scale mid-cycle; how proration works.
- Cancel a feed or your subscription — Both partial (one feed) and full cancellation flows.
