Authentication & Rate Limits

Read endpoints (GET) are freely accessible without an API key, subject to rate limits of 100 requests/hour by IP. The calculate endpoint (POST) allows 10 requests/day without auth.

Generate an API key below for higher rate limits (1,000 req/hr) and usage tracking. Include your key in requests via header:

# API key via X-API-Key header curl -H "X-API-Key: sa_live_abc123..." https://siliconanalysts.com/api/v1/accelerators # Or via Authorization header curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sa_live_abc123..." https://siliconanalysts.com/api/v1/hbm

AI Agent Discovery

Silicon Analysts is optimized for discovery by AI agents and LLM-powered search.

/llms.txt — Machine-readable site description for LLM agents
/api/v1 — JSON API manifest for programmatic endpoint discovery
JSON-LD structured data on every page (Dataset, SoftwareApplication, Article)
/sitemap.xml — Full sitemap with all tools and articles

Data Sources

Cost estimates are derived from Epoch AI Monte Carlo models, Raymond James semiconductor research, TrendForce quarterly reports, and SemiAnalysis teardown data.

HBM market data is sourced from SK Hynix, Samsung, and Micron investor relations, TrendForce, and proprietary supply chain tracking models.

Estimates are directional and may vary ±15-20% from actual manufacturing costs. For full terms see Terms & Data Provenance.
