description: >-
  FinOps view of Tabit spend. Tabit is a sales-led restaurant POS and hospitality
  platform billed as a subscription/license (per location and per product module),
  with payment processing handled via Tabit Pay and certified payment providers.
  Tabit does not operate a public, usage-metered developer API, so there is no
  per-call / per-token API metering to model. Cost management is driven by
  subscription terms negotiated with Tabit sales and by payment-processing fees.
  Values here are not reconciled.
notes: >-
  No public pricing or usage metering is published; reconcile against the
  negotiated Tabit subscription agreement and payment-processing statements.
