Every figure, with its source

One row per source: the figure the source's own page publishes, the page, and the day it was read. A figure that is not on a page we read is not on this one.

Read in full, publishes no figure

16 named sources were read in full on the dates shown and print no usable figure. They are counted, never filled in.

Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).

6 of the 22 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 16 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.

The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 91 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.

The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per builder per plan: the published price monthly and annual, the renewal price where it differs from the first year, what the plan is metered on (sites, submissions, forms, users), the number included, and the cheapest plan that removes the vendor's badge; across them the median entry price, the median included submissions, the price per thousand submissions, and the count of builders whose renewal costs more than their first year - the figure the comparison posts never compute

91 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
