  and investing platform with no public developer billing surface; FOCUS columns describe the corporate
  publisher only.'

notes: SoFi Technologies does not expose a public developer API or usage-based billing surface. Meters,
  unit prices, and ChargeCategory mappings cannot be reconciled because there are no published API consumption
  units. Updated only if SoFi publishes a partner/developer pricing page.

  - name: Visibility
    description: SoFi member-facing consumption (interest, fees, investing activity) is surfaced through
      the SoFi mobile/web app and member statements, not through a developer billing API.
  - name: Allocation
    description: Not applicable - SoFi is a direct-to-consumer bank without team/cost-center allocation
      semantics on a developer surface.
  - name: Optimization
    description: Not applicable at the API/FinOps layer; product-level optimization (rate shopping, fee
      avoidance) is the member's responsibility.
  - name: Accountability
    description: Member-level accountability is governed by the SoFi member agreement, not by a developer/tenant
      contract.
