## Features

## Caveats

- Lite $20/mo includes $20 credits, Pro $100 includes $105, Max $200–1000 in $100 steps includes 110%; annual 20% discount, trial $1/7d/card. Credits pay agent/model work and resource exchange unverified; unlimited members not unlimited compute.
- 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.
- Programs: approved OSS orgs get $50 free usage per UTC day; YC companies and eligible Solo Founders members get $1,000 credits (program-gated).
- Volumes (org/project files outside git): 100 MiB per file, 2 GiB per version, 10 GiB per organization; no price published.

## Verified billing facts and gotchas

1. Lite $20/mo includes $20 credits, Pro $100 includes $105, Max $200–1000 in $100 steps includes 110%; annual 20% discount, trial $1/7d/card. Credits pay agent/model work and resource exchange unverified; unlimited members not unlimited compute.

## 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.
