I've just created a developer account and I'm evaluating Kite Connect for a retail investing platform we're building. The startups page mentions writing in for free API access and revenue sharing details, but the email link on that page doesn't resolve for me — could someone point me to the right contact, or pick this up here?
A few questions while I'm here:
1. What's the process and rough timeline to get approved for Kite Connect for Startups?
2. The startups page mentions end-to-end broking as a service including onboarding, KYC and account opening. Is account opening available programmatically at this tier, or do users need to complete signup on Zerodha's own site first? This is the main thing I'm trying to plan around.
3. Access tokens expire daily per the public docs, with refresh tokens limited to certain approved platforms for read permissions. Does the startups tier change this for order placement?
4. Is there any mechanism for scheduled or recurring equity orders, or is manual placement the only option?
5. On market data — I understand displaying Kite data on external platforms runs into exchange data vending policies. Does the startups tier allow showing live prices within our own app, or is that restricted regardless of tier?
6. Any guidance on how revenue sharing works at this tier?
Happy to take the specifics off the forum if that's easier.
