Platform/CDN noise is filtered, top N priority targets are scored by authority. Use 2-3 competitors. Costs one gap job + one backlinks call per enriched target.
releases
List the Common Crawl releases the API can query. Does not count against any quota. Use a release `id` with the backlinks tool to query a specific snapshot.
