  The Quote API itself has no priced tier: "Do I need an account or a key? No for normal use: quoting and payment
  sessions are open, rate limited per client" and "What does a call cost me? Nothing." A higher hourly bucket is
  granted by manually issued OAuth credentials, with no published price. The pricing page prices the consumer
  product (the calculator account, not API calls): three tiers, monthly or annual, with "API and white-label"
  listed under Business as coming soon. Recorded verbatim from the page on 2026-09-19.
