description: Tuya operates the Tuya IoT Development Platform, with developer accounts that get free trial-tier
  cloud quotas and paid commercial packages negotiated per project. The public marketing site does not
  publish a self-serve price list — the canonical /pricing endpoint returned a 404 during reconciliation
  and the developer portal exposes plans through console-side product packages rather than a public catalog.

notes: No public self-serve price list. Tuya distinguishes a free Developer / Trial tier (used for evaluation)
  from commercial Cloud Development Packages quoted per project; specific prices were not reachable via
  the public web.
