Fast global city data APIs. Flat pricing

Tova Cities API is a city and country API. Most location APIs are overkill for many developers and/or ship bloated SDKs. Tova Cities API is narrow on purpose: 56,000+ cities, fast responses, flat pricing. Simple REST endpoints, seven languages of example code, no SDK required. 1,000 free requests to try it.
I built Tova Cities API because I needed a focused city and country API, and every option in front of me was either bloated, unpredictable, or both.
The big providers wanted a credit card and a meter. Free tiers came with "don't cache, don't store" fine print. SDKs shipped with twenty methods I'd never use, pricing tiers I had to memorize, and enough billing complexity that I caught myself overthinking every API call.
Tova is the opposite: simple endpoints, 56,000+ cities worldwide, flat pricing, cache whatever you want. The Cities API is just the beginning. more coming soon!
Curious what you all think, especially if you've hit the same wall with location data providers. What's the most frustrating API pricing/integration gotcha you've run into?
