how to use a response from an api request
Yup. In my case, I have an Airtable automation that runs daily and puts the upcoming week's sunrise and sunset data into a table. I then subscribe to a calendar view from that table in Apple Calendar, which gives me a rolling update of sunrise and sunset data wherever I have access to that iCloud calendar subscription.

SEO stuff!
Can you be more specific? What's your use case where you're concerned about SEO with relation to images?
AFAIK SEO only deals with text—keywords, phrases, etc. While search engines can return images, I don't think that image format comes into play when deciding which results to show first.

how to use a response from an api request
I apologize if my comments came off as confrontational. Admittedly the vast majority of my work with APIs is in back-end environments, so I suppose I tend to think of them mostly in that context.

how to use a response from an api request
That depends on the context. A good chunk of what I do is write serverless functions to pull database records via API, process the data, then update other database records via further API calls. I'm consuming the API data purely on the back-end.

how to use a response from an api request
API integration is more back-end than front-end. Even if the result is meant to be used on the front-end, the question (as I read it) is more about how to access the data at all.

What's the API? That response looks very similar to a weather API that I've used.

What are your thoughts on this?
I'd be inclined to use a glow effect on hover instead of a drop shadow.

The other thing that jumped out to me was the greenish drop shadow on the "Launch now" button. Not a good color with the rest. That aside, my recommendation is to nix the drop shadows on both buttons. It doesn't fit with the rest of the design.

Possibly. And on that front, I agree with your other point that 3 options is better than 2

Readability aside, it's odd that it's labeled as a free plan, yet it's supposedly discounted from $50. If it's free, then it's free. No need to mention what it's supposedly worth otherwise unless it's actually being sold at a discount for a specific reason (e.g. coupon, limited-time offer, etc.)

Yeah, it's so small that readability is affected

That part actually reads 50 $0
In both cases the crossed-out text has no dollar sign

How to color text so it is visible against any background color?
Agreed. Color—especially when it comes to readability—should be designed/controlled, not left to a calculation.

How to color text so it is visible against any background color?
I'd be more inclined to hard-code it for each line, setting each line's text color to either black or white depending on which is more readable on a given background color.
