  Orama Cloud is offered across Free, Pro, Premium, and Enterprise plans. Every
  plan - including Free - includes the full feature set (full-text, vector, and
  hybrid search, the answer engine, and embeddings), with limits that scale by
  tier. Search queries, embeddings generation, and answer sessions are
  unlimited on all plans; tiers differ on index-update quota, analytics
  retention, segments/triggers, and support. The open-source Orama engine is
  Apache 2.0 and free to self-host; Orama is also free forever for open-source
  and community projects.
notes: >-
  Exact monthly prices for Pro, Premium, and Enterprise are not published on
  Orama's public pricing page (limits and features are listed; dollar amounts
  are "contact sales / flat fee"). Verify current prices and limits at
  https://docs.orama.com/cloud/understanding-orama/pricing-limits during
  reconciliation. The open-source engine is a self-hosted library, not a
  metered plan.
