Changes are recorded the night they appear on the official pricing page, unless corrected to an earlier confirmed effective date. A historical slot is labelled neutrally when a later model replacement would otherwise rewrite the past. Full history: the charts.

About these numbers. The provider page is the authority for its current published price. TokenScale checks nightly against the official pricing page and keeps an independent append-only record of what was verified, changed, corrected or carried forward (data through 2026-10-05). Last hand-verified 2026-10-05. List prices only: promotions and limited-time discounts never enter the history. When a price cannot be reproduced, its last known value is retained and marked as carried; a later successful check verifies only its own date. If a number is wrong, the correction is published, not buried: see the methodology.
