FAQ.

Mostly. Fast actions fill the cell in a few seconds. Long-running ones run in the background and write back to the row when they finish, so you can close the tab.

No. A failed lookup costs zero credits. When a provider misses or times out, the waterfall moves to the next one and you only pay for the match you actually got.

No. Run it on one cell, on a selection, on the whole table, or on a schedule. Same action either way.
