description: 'FOCUS-aligned FinOps placeholder for H.B. Fuller: enterprise / partner API access
  bundled into a commercial agreement, not metered as a standalone SaaS line. Meters describe
  partner-integration volume rather than billable units.'
notes: No public commercial model is published. The shape below treats API consumption as a
  partner-allocation surface; replace meters when a billable model is documented.
