Want to pay for censys but developing is a massive credit burden

I have authority to pay for censys as long as it accommodates our needs. This is _exceptionally_ difficult due to the credit consumption. Get a query wrong or slightly incorrect, more credits. I don’t know about y’all but iterating when developing is EXECEPTIONALLY COMMON. This causes me to blast through all the credits (and budget) I have before I’m able to actually figure out if this is going to work.

How can censys accommodate me and my goals??? Will it? Like, I’d be happy to use a “one year old” database (ie: not representative of live data) or be limited to “only” 10 results per request or literally anything along these lines.

Can you, will you help me pay for censys? I just need to figure out how much it’ll end up costing me to figure out if I can even afford it.
