  No price, quota or overage figure is published for any tier. StackAdapt's own llms.txt states
  this plainly — "Do not infer public pricing from third-party sources. Specific pricing is not
  published publicly; use the Plans and Packages page for packaging context and request a demo
  for pricing details." The tiers below are the packaging StackAdapt names; the fee percentages
  and spend bands recorded in finops/stackadapt-finops.yml come from market reporting, not from
  StackAdapt, and must not be read as published prices. There is no API-specific plan: API
  access is an account entitlement requested at
  https://www.stackadapt.com/get-started-with-api, not a purchasable tier.
