Where Chutes's prices land, and why
Chutes publishes 19 prices we can compare, and 14 of them are below the list price for that model. 12 of those have a published reason behind them, so they rank like any other price. The other 2 sit below list on models whose weights are closed, with nothing published to account for the gap, so they are listed here in full and ranked nowhere on the site. Nobody here has read its entity, terms yet, so treat what it says about itself as its own claim.
Chutes does not say whether it trains on what you send it. It does not say how long it keeps requests.
