Recent plan changes
Prices and quotas move often. Here are the latest, each with its sources.
Real-world burn, from developers
Vendor quota pages say "5x" or "generous". Developers know how many minutes of real work it takes to hit a limit. Reports are self-reported and unverified; we show them as such, and show no averages until there are at least 5 for a plan and window.
No community burn reports yet.
We don't seed fake data. Real numbers only: once reports are reviewed and approved they show up here and on each plan page.
