description: >-
  FOCUS-aligned FinOps view of Slice's commercial surface. Slice's billable unit is
  the order: pizzerias on Slice Essentials pay a flat $2.99/order and those on Slice
  Premium pay a flat $2.50/order, with $0 charged on orders under $10. This is a
  flat-fee usage model (charge per order) rather than a percentage take-rate or a
  metered API-call model. Access to the Slice Public API is partner-gated and not
  separately priced, so there is no published per-API-call cost dimension to model;
  the cost driver remains the order. Cost telemetry for partners integrating the API
  is therefore tied to order volume processed through the platform.
