  FOCUS-aligned FinOps definition for the Fitbit consumer and developer
  surface. The Fitbit Web API itself is offered at no direct charge to
  developers — there is no usage-based metering of API calls — so the FinOps
  surface centers on the consumer subscription (Fitbit Premium) and on the
  hardware purchase (Fitbit devices). Successor surface (Google Health API)
  inherits Google Cloud's metering and billing model.

notes:
  - The Fitbit Web API does not meter or bill API calls. There is no per-call cost.
  - Cost optimization on the consumer side is limited to choosing monthly vs. annual Premium billing (annual nets approximately a 33 percent discount).
  - Successor API surface — Google Health API — is billed through Google Cloud; consult Google Cloud's FOCUS export for usage-based costs once integrations are migrated.
