Exa and Perplexity now run their search operations on NoClick's keys when the node has no account connected. Add the node, pick one of the covered operations, and it runs, with the cost coming out of your NoClick credits instead of asking you for an API key first. On Exa that covers Search, Get Contents, Answer, and Find Similar. On Perplexity it covers Create Chat Completion, Academic Search (Chat), SEC Filings Search (Chat), Structured JSON Output (Chat), and Search the Web. Connect your own key whenever you prefer to be billed by the provider directly.

• A node that can run this way now says so in its Credentials tab: a green Usage-based billing available - credentials optional marker sits above the picker, and with nothing attached the tab reads Using NoClick's usage-based billing (no credentials needed). Connecting your own key stays one click away in the same place.
