  Percy (part of BrowserStack) prices visual testing on screenshots consumed per
  month - a screenshot is one rendered snapshot at one browser/width combination.
  There is a free-forever plan with a bounded monthly screenshot allowance and
  unlimited users and projects, a paid plan that raises the included screenshot
  count and build-history retention, and a custom enterprise plan. Screenshot usage
  beyond a plan's included units is billed as overage at the plan's overage rate.
  The REST API itself carries no separate fee; API usage draws on the same
  screenshot allowance as CLI/SDK-driven builds. Percy is also sold as part of the
  broader BrowserStack platform.
notes: >-
  Exact paid-tier names, monthly/annual prices, and overage rates are set on the
  BrowserStack pricing page and change over time - the paid figures below are
  grounded in publicly reported 2026 numbers but flagged unreconciled. Verify at
  https://www.browserstack.com/pricing?product=percy before relying on them. The
  Free plan's 5,000 screenshots/month with unlimited users and projects is stated
  in BrowserStack's own Percy documentation.
