## Caveats

- Public Artillery CLI/Cloud subscription: Free 30 reports/mo, up to 5 workers/test, 30min test; Team $199/mo, 1000 reports, 25 workers, 2h; Business $499/mo, 2500 reports with no stated worker/duration cap. Annual 20% discount.
- Distributed test workers run in AWS/Azure; separate underlying compute charges must be verified, not assumed included in dashboard/report subscription. Enterprise security add-ons start $1199/mo, own-account cloud deployment quote.
- Null values mean unknown, not free/unlimited. No model-token cost, tax or unverified ancillary charge included.
- Native browser/device/task/credit prices with unknown CPU/RAM are deliberately non-priceable. Check regime before interpreting any partial resource estimate.
- Azure ACI: a single test run is limited to 12 hours and each worker to 4 CPUs / 16 GB; Azure also rate-limits container-group creates per 5 min / per hour (raise via Azure support). Running on Azure ACI for non-evaluation purposes requires an Artillery subscription.
- Enterprise add-ons (SSO, audit logs, MSA, SLAs) from $1,199/month; paid-plan trials via sales; purchasable on AWS Marketplace; invoice billing via sales.

## Verified billing facts and gotchas

1. Public Artillery CLI/Cloud subscription: Free 30 reports/mo, up to 5 workers/test, 30min test; Team $199/mo, 1000 reports, 25 workers, 2h; Business $499/mo, 2500 reports with no stated worker/duration cap. Annual 20% discount.
2. Distributed test workers run in AWS/Azure; separate underlying compute charges must be verified, not assumed included in dashboard/report subscription. Enterprise security add-ons start $1199/mo, own-account cloud deployment quote.

## Worked example

Requested: 4 vCPU/8 GiB, 50 simultaneous × 8 h/day × 22 days = **8,800 instance-hours**, 30% CPU; 50 GiB snapshots and 100 GiB egress. A month is 730 hours only when explicitly used in rate conversion.

**Total: unknown.** This product does not publish a verified complete 4-vCPU/8-GiB tariff and/or the service bills a different unit. Fifty concurrent instances and eight-hour sessions are not automatically supported. Neither 30% utilization nor retained snapshots can be converted into free resources. Use the native plan terms above and request the missing CPU/RAM, retention, egress and concurrency quote.

Page captures and documentation indexes/bundles are in `raw/`; provider JSON lists the evidence paths. HN query results were captured separately as `<id>--hn.txt`; they are discovery leads, not current tariff authority. Downloaded docs do not imply every feature was verified; unsupported assertions remain null.
