  emem publishes no paid tiers and no pricing page (/pricing returns 404). The hosted responder
  is free and open: the machine-readable readiness document states cost "free", auth "none",
  approval "none"; the terms of service describe L0/L1 reads as free, anonymous and rate-limited,
  offered as-is without an uptime SLA. Writes are tiered by an enlistment ladder that explicitly
  involves no account, no bearer token and no payment. The protocol is Apache-2.0 and self-hosting
  (ghcr.io/vortx-ai/emem) is unrestricted.

  description: >-
    Anonymous reads of every L0/L1 endpoint and MCP tool with no key, account or approval.
    Writes (memory notes, attestations, entities) require a caller-generated ed25519 key and
    climb the T0-T5 enlistment ladder by passing third-party-verifiable checks, never by payment.

    Run the Apache-2.0 responder yourself (docker run ghcr.io/vortx-ai/emem:latest or cargo build
    --release --bin emem-server); recommended by the provider for production workloads and bulk
    historical processing. Not counted as a hosted plan tier.
