summary: >-
  Tandoor sells a hosted subscription in four public tiers plus a free tier, and gives the software
  away for unlimited self-hosting. Limits are on MEMBERS, RECIPES, AI CREDITS and UPLOAD STORAGE —
  there is no API-call quota on any plan, and no plan mentions the API at all. The self-hosted build
  is the same code with the same API and no limits; the paid plans are explicitly framed as a way to
  fund development.

      "Tandoor is completely Open Source and always will be." Operator-configurable space limits
      (SPACE_DEFAULT_MAX_RECIPES, SPACE_DEFAULT_MAX_USERS, SPACE_DEFAULT_MAX_FILES) default to
      unlimited.
api_metering:
  metered: false
  detail: >-
    No plan attaches an API request quota, rate tier or overage price. The only metered resource is
    AI credits, consumed by the AI import and property-extraction features
    (POST /api/ai-import/, POST /api/recipe/{id}/aiproperties/, POST /api/ai-step-sort/) and readable
    through /api/ai-log/. On self-hosted instances AI spend is capped by the operator instead
    (default ~1 USD per space per month, AI_RATELIMIT default 60/hour).
billing:
  processor: Stripe
  evidence: >-
    /api/enterprise-billing-stripe/, /api/enterprise-billing-invoice/, /api/enterprise-billing-plan/,
    /api/enterprise-billing-product/ and StripeCheckoutSessionRequest / StripePortal schemas in the
    OpenAPI. These endpoints back the hosted product's own subscription UI.
