How we count
Netlify and Vercel come out level on all 2 shapes both sell, and 2 are level or have a free tier on one side. Both are the same kind of platform, so what a price buys is the same shape at each and the money is most of what separates them.
A shape is a runtime with the same stated memory at both, smallest first, or a subscription at the same step of both ladders. A seat and a gigabyte are never put in the same row.
Where one side of a row costs nothing, neither is marked as the cheaper: free is a limit rather than a price. What each platform meters on top is listed beside the prices and never folded into them, and a rate that is not published is not a rate of zero.
