What AMPM does

Every price checked on the official site

AI tool prices change constantly, and what the site says is often not what your card gets charged. We open the official pricing page for every monthly fee, annual fee and free allowance, stamp the verification date, and when the vendor does not publish a number we say so instead of guessing, converting or quoting unsourced figures.

Is the free quota enough?

Many tools say free but forbid commercial use, force a watermark or allow only a few runs a day. Vendors bury these limits in the FAQ or terms rather than the pricing page. We dig them out and put them first, so you see them before deciding whether to pay.

Annual-plan averages are not monthly list prices

Pricing pages often default to the annual plan's monthly average, which looks cheaper but has to be paid a year at a time. We record the monthly list price, annual price and promo price separately, note promo conditions and deadlines, and never let a limited-time deal pass as the normal price.

TWD prices checked separately, no exchange-rate math

Taiwan pricing is not the US price times an exchange rate. The same plan can be cheaper or dearer locally, and annual discounts often differ. Where an official TWD list price exists we quote it; where it does not, we say only the USD price is available and do not invent a conversion.
