PostGrad

Sign up + pick your plan

Create your PostGrad account, pick a subscriber tier, and confirm your email so you can start making API calls.

PostGrad is a metered API — before you can make a call, you need an account and a tier that matches how much knowledge your agent will pull. This walkthrough gets you from the marketing home page to a logged-in dashboard in about two minutes.

Before you start: have a working email address and a card you're willing to use for the subscription. Paid tiers run through Stripe Checkout, so no card details ever touch PostGrad.

Open postgrad.io and scroll to pricing

The toggle at the top of the pricing section switches between "For agent builders" (you) and "For licensors" (publishers selling feeds). Stay on "For agent builders" for this walkthrough.

If you're not sure which tier to pick, Pro is the right default. You can upgrade or downgrade anytime from your dashboard — see Upgrade or downgrade your tier.

Click "Get started" on the tier you want

If you already have an account under that email, sign in instead — the subscription will attach automatically once the webhook catches up (a few seconds).

Set your password and verify your email

The Quick Start panel walks you through the first three things to do: generate an API key, subscribe to a feed, and make a test call. The rest of this Help Center covers each of those in detail.
