How the numbers are made
Monthly plan costs use the cheapest published plan plus overage at 3-minute calls. The method, what we leave out and how often we re-read each page are on how we price. Every change is on the change log. You can also query the index from ChatGPT or any MCP client: the ReceptionistPrices app.
