description: Instructure publishes NO pricing page for Canvas. /pricing, /canvas/pricing and /canvas/pricing-plans
  all return HTTP 404. Institutional Canvas is quote-only through sales. The one publicly available, publicly priced
  tier is Canvas Free-for-Teacher. Replaces the 2026-05-04 scaffold, which invented a Free / Professional / Enterprise
  ladder with request quotas Canvas does not publish and does not meter.
