2026-08-18 fetch: HTTP 200, server-rendered HTML (355KB) with real dollar figures present in the markup, e.g. $0, $12, $18, $24, $35 appear as plan price text (including a 'per [seat]' business-tier price of $35). 2026-08-19 facts pass instead confirms a simpler two-tier read (Basic $0, Business $14/user/mo) from the same live page; the wider ladder of price points found the prior day was not fully reconciled against today's read, may reflect intermediate seat tiers not captured this pass. Corrected the tools.json pricing field, which implied only a time-limited trial rather than a perpetual free Basic tier.
