notes
conflict: the docs say the free tier applies when no payment method is linked, but the plans page says 'add a payment method and purchase credits to run your first requests'. card_required left null until confirmed.
couldn't find these on the official page: phone required, region restrictions. if you can, send the link and we'll check it.
