| Tier | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Self-hosted | Free | Run the agent + control plane on your machine. You pay only for oracle calls. |
| Hosted | ~$0.04 / active agent-hour | We run the agent; you connect the app. |
| Verdict | ~$0.50 / verdict | A grounded oracle verdict (panel + dissent + citations + on-chain receipt). |
