description: Metaplane's published plans, read verbatim from the pricing page on 2026-08-29. Replaces a 2026-05-04
  bulk-sweep scaffold whose tiers, quotas and overage prices were invented.
currency: USD
billing_unit: monitored table
plan_count: 3
note: 'Metaplane prices the PRODUCT, not the API — no plan meters API calls and no tier gates access to the REST
  API by request volume. The API-relevant gate is on the alerting side: the pricing comparison table lists ''API,
  Webhooks'' as alert destinations on ENTERPRISE only, while Free and Pro get Slack/Email/MS Teams (Pro adds PagerDuty).
  Pro pricing is usage-based per monitored table and the per-table rate is not published; Enterprise is contact-sales.
  Snowflake customers may pay with existing Snowflake credits.'
