  "_readme": "Seat/subscription pricing for the vendors and coding tools in data/models.json, plus the cloud marketplaces enterprises actually buy through. Refreshed manually — see scripts/refresh-plans.md. Every price is read from the vendor's own pricing page (rendered in a real browser where the page is JS-only), or, when that page lists a tier without printing its number, from the vendor's help center / docs, or from the vendor's launch announcement as reported by the press — `billing` says which source tier (1 = vendor pricing page, 2 = vendor help center/docs/blog, 3 = launch announcement as reported by a major outlet). Where a page shows both terms, `price_usd_month` is the annual-billing monthly equivalent and `billing` states the monthly-billing figure. A null price means the plan has no public list price (contact sales) — never a guess; `billing` then says exactly what the vendor says and what a reputable report adds. Per-token API prices live in data/models.json, not here. Validated by scripts/validate-data.mjs. Optional fields: `base_usd_month` is a flat monthly fee charged once per team on top of the per-seat price (Devin Teams). `price_usd_month_billed_monthly` is the per-seat price when billed monthly, where `price_usd_month` is the annual-billing figure. `reaches` (\"all\", or the model vendors the plan can call) and `covers_tokens` (true when the seat pays for token use; false for a per-token marketplace) are set on rows whose vendor is a harness or marketplace rather than a model lab. `renamed_from` lists earlier board labels (vendor + plan) of a renamed row, so a saved board can follow the rename. `quote` is verbatim text from `quote_url` (or `source_url` when absent), checked by scripts/check-sources.mjs; every priced row checked on or after 2026-10-03 carries one.",
