Why it matters
A figure is only citable when a reader can check where it came from. This page fixes the dataset, the method and the data date next to the claim itself, so a journalist, researcher or answer engine can quote the number without asking anyone for the source.
Limitations
- Prices are list prices published by model providers, not measured spend.
- A price change by a provider is reflected only after the pricing dataset is next refreshed.
