  WakaTime offers tiered per-user subscriptions on the individual side (Free, Basic, Premium) and
  per-developer subscriptions on the company side (Team, Business). Pricing scales primarily on
  dashboard history retention, number of programming goals, private leaderboard size, and access
  to premium integrations. All plans share the same underlying API surface; quotas are enforced
  by feature gating (e.g. dashboard history) and by the global API rate limit, not by per-call
  metering. Annual subscriptions discount the monthly price by roughly 8%.
