How do I get my key?
Use the signup flow on the homepage. CardDex creates a free key immediately and shows it once.
PUBLIC BETA
Simple pricing for the beta launch
CardDex is free to start. Public browsing is open, and the free beta key gives you more room to build.

What the beta does and does not promise
- CardDex is launching as a public beta, not a finished enterprise product.
- Paid tiers may arrive later, but this launch does not promise dates, prices, or limits yet.
- If you need something beyond the beta scope, email [email protected].
Questions
What is live today?
The beta launch covers cards, sets, prices, meta, docs, pricing, and a simple free API key flow.
Are paid plans available?
Not yet. The launch version keeps pricing honest and only publishes what you can actually use today.
Can I use it in production?
You can build on it now, but the correct framing is public beta. Expect iteration while the product hardens.
