Dates, billing and evidence
Rates are per accelerator-hour and retain each venue’s billing model. Instance totals multiply the recorded accelerator count by the quoted rate; rounding may apply. They describe the recorded configuration, not a provider-wide minimum. Unavailable sources retain their last valid quote and original observation date. Open a row for its full configuration and source. All rows: Provisional — Dated source-page observation; the raw payload is not yet pinned to the archive.

Source and methodology
Daily class aggregates from published Neon quote snapshots, archived through 2026-10-20; their citable series IDs, with each comparison-policy version, are under Cite. A day or class without a comparable quote stays a gap — never interpolated; a median on fewer than 3 venues is drawn as its range (a vertical bar), never as a point on the line, and the tooltip and table view print that range.
