What this course costs
Free. Every lesson here is reading and setup, nothing in this course spends credits.
What you will be able to do
- Decide when Kuration is the right tool and when a static database would be faster.
- Predict the credit cost of a run before you start it, for all three charging behaviours.
- Read any cell back to the source it came from, and tell a miss apart from a skip.
Before you start
- Nothing. This is the first course. A free workspace is all you need.

The build that proves it
Predict a run before you press it
Open a project with 20 rows of company names. Write down, on paper, what you think it will cost to add official websites to all 20 rows, and then what it will cost to find one decision maker at each. Run the first one only. Compare your prediction to the credits actually deducted.
- You have done it when
- Your prediction for Website Finder is exactly right, and you can say out loud why the people search number is a range rather than a fixed figure.
- Credit budget
- Twenty rows of Website Finder at whatever its card says. Nothing else runs.
