 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 6 of the 27 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 21 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 138 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: every vendor's published plan normalised to ONE comparable number - the monthly cost of a 25-person single-location restaurant - across the two incompatible models (per location and per user), which is the only way the market can be ranked and which no vendor does because each publishes in the unit that flatters it; beside it, the capability column that decides the query: on which plan (free, entry, mid) an EMPLOYEE can swap a shift without the manager, read from the vendor's own plan table. The template rows are generated from the plan features, not written.",
