## Changelog

### 0.2 — 13 October 2026

- New pricing (benchmark against the five most-used LinkedIn people-search tools): $0.0003 per profile plus $0.001 per name that returns at least one profile — a full 50-profile name now costs $0.016 instead of $0.075. Names with no match, failed lookups and bad input stay free.
- "Max cost per run" is checked before a name is searched: a name the cap can no longer pay for gets a free notice row instead of an opened (and unpaid) directory page.
- The People table now has Note and Error columns, and free rows (no match, bad input) are written after the people, so the table never starts with a half-empty row.
- A directory lookup refused with HTTP 451/403/999 is retried (up to 3 tries) instead of giving the name an error row at once.
- Notice rows for names whose matches were all removed by your filters have their own kind, `filtered-out`.

### 0.1 — 5 October 2026

- First version: names → up to 50 public LinkedIn profiles per name from LinkedIn's public people directory, location/company filters applied after fetching, optional full-profile add-on, free notice rows for names with no match.
