Every pricing, open-source and platform fact was checked by hand on the tool's own pricing page, docs or official GitHub repo (license file). Click a fact to open its source. Open source means an OSI-approved license in the official repo; source-available licenses such as FSL are labeled as such. Anything we couldn't confirm is marked unverified, not guessed.
