    RingCentral Events (formerly Hopin) uses a per-organizer per-month pricing
    model. API access is an Enterprise-only feature. Costs scale with the
    number of organizers in your organization. There are no attendee overage
    charges and no per-event fees. Annual billing provides up to 16% savings
    over monthly billing.

    - tip: >-
        Audit organizer seat count regularly; remove seats for users who no
        longer require organizer access to reduce per-seat costs.
    - tip: >-
        API access requires the Enterprise plan. Evaluate whether API
        integration justifies the Enterprise tier upgrade over Pro+.
    - tip: >-
        Use the 30-day free trial to validate the platform before committing
        to a paid plan.
