Questions

Is Link Gap by DataForSEO free?

Scrollport has no free tier: it costs $0.0336 per request ($3.36 per 100 requests), paid per use from a prepaid wallet with no subscription. Connecting your first agent adds $1 of trial credit, so you can try it before adding funds.

Do I need an API key from DataForSEO?

No. Your agent runs it through your Scrollport connection (MCP, the Scrollport CLI or the HTTP API), and Scrollport handles access to DataForSEO, so you don't sign up with DataForSEO or manage an API key.
