Token Usage Explained

Created by Atul Todi, Modified on Sat, 16 Aug, 2025 at 11:39 PM by Atul Todi

WHR uses Search Tokens to measure data usage. Every time you access live, enriched data (events, companies, people), tokens are deducted. If tokens run out, you can still search in Basic Mode (light version, free quota).

This guide explains the user flow step by step.


Search Modes

ModeWhat it meansToken usageWhat you see
Advanced SearchFull power search with enriched filters, trackers, analytics1 token per row (event, company, or person)Enriched data, trackers, analytics
Basic SearchLight mode: when Advanced is paused or tokens are finishedFree (limited daily/monthly quota)Basic fields, limited filters, no trackers

Analogy: Advanced = 5G speed, Basic = 3G fallback.


When Tokens Are Used

  • Search results → each row = 1 token

  • Detail pages → each event, company, or person profile = 1 token

  • Trackers → free to save, but viewing results = tokens used

  • Exports (CSV/API) → each entry = 1 token

  • Bookmarks / Coordinate / Outreach → no tokens used


Team Usage Policy

  • Tokens are shared across the team.

  • If multiple teammates run the same search separately → tokens are deducted each time.

  • Best practice: save searches as Trackers so the whole team can open results without re-charging.

Pro Tips

  • Don’t stress if you hit limits → Basic Search keeps you connected.

  • Use Trackers → save and share searches to minimize token drain.

  • Use Bookmarks/Coordinate → no tokens deducted.

  • Export carefully → every exported row counts as a token.


Quick FAQ

Q: Do tokens and contact credits overlap?
No. Tokens = data usage. Credits = unlocking contact details.

Q: Can I pause token usage?
Yes. Pause Advanced filters → you switch to Basic Search automatically.

Q: What happens if I run out of tokens mid-month?
You still get Basic Search until tokens reset.
