  Skimmer is priced per serviced location per month, billed regardless of how
  many visits or bodies of water a location has. Published self-service tiers are
  "Getting Started" ($1/location/month, $49/month minimum which includes 49
  locations) and "Scaling Up" ($2/location/month, $98/month minimum, first month
  free). Public API access is NOT part of these self-service tiers: it is
  included only on the top Enterprise tier - marketed as "Skimmer for Enterprise"
  / "Owning the Market" - which carries custom pricing and is aimed at operations
  servicing 1,000+ pools per month. Enterprise (API) access is sales-led: pricing
  and eligibility are negotiated with Skimmer's sales team, not published.
notes: >-
  Per-location prices above are from Skimmer's public pricing page and can
  change. API access, custom integrations, and the "Owning the Market" tier are
  quoted directly by Skimmer sales (sales@getskimmer.com, (855) 452-1737); no
  public per-unit API price exists.
