/v1/summary stay free. See Access and API docs.
The Afghan Aid Ledger publishes stage-separated aid accountability data compiled from public sources (including OCHA FTS/HPC and HDX HAPI) plus KI’s analysis, interfaces and methodology. Underlying source datasets remain subject to their own open-data terms; KI does not claim exclusive ownership of those raw public records.
Anyone may view public headline findings (Section I funding-gap figures, Section VI confirmed-minimum headline), methodology and About content. Attribution to “Afghan Aid Ledger / Kabul Institute” and the source agencies is required when republishing figures. Non-commercial republication of public headline figures with attribution is allowed.
Free accounts may use the interactive dashboard for personal, journalistic, research and non-commercial purposes. You may not systematically scrape, bulk-export, or redistribute the interactive dataset outside the site’s public download/API products. Attribution remains required when citing interactive findings.
Paid tiers may download CSV/JSON (“raw exports”), use the API within their plan’s rate limits, and embed charts after the soft-launch ends. Redistribution of bulk exports for resale, or sharing API keys outside your licensed seats, is prohibited. CSV exports carry a license watermark identifying the purchasing account; stripping watermarks or leaking exports may result in revocation and enforcement under these Terms.
Institutional licenses cover named seats under one organization. Seat sharing outside the licensed organization is not allowed. Custom invoices and purchase orders are arranged with KI separately from self-serve Stripe checkout. Multi-seat access is provisioned via grant codes and/or institutional account upgrades by KI staff.
OCHA FTS, OCHA HPC and HDX HAPI remain public/open source systems. The paywall covers KI’s product: curation, stage-separation rules, interactive tools, scorecards and analysis — not a claim of exclusive rights over the raw upstream APIs. KI’s original analysis and interactivity may be licensed; the underlying public source data cannot be exclusively resold by KI.
KI may suspend accounts, revoke API keys, or refuse renewals for scraping abuse, key sharing, watermark stripping, or license breach. Watermarked CSV exports allow KI to trace leaked files to a source account.
