Paid plans are billed annually: Bronze is $59.99 a year, Silver $149.99 a year, Gold $599.99 a year, and Platinum $1,439.99 a year. The REST API offers public statistics, historical performance data, rankings, and top lists, with lookups requiring prepaid credits. YouTube historical data is capped at three years.
