Feature parity 50%

Vercel’s Hobby plan is explicitly “Free forever” but it is capped, so this is a free_tier rather than always_free_unbounded. The page lists concrete included quotas (for example 1M Edge Requests, 100 GB Fast Data Transfer, 4 hours Functions CPU, 1 GB Blob storage, etc.), but the prompt’s rule for free_tier_value_usd_per_month requires pricing the free tier against the lowest paid plan that exceeds the cap; here the paid plan is Pro at $20/mo plus usage, and the page does not provide a single clean overage threshold to prorate against, so a conservative single monthly value is not reliably computable from the supplied data. Pro clearly gates team collaboration and paid usage credit, so feature parity is materially below 100.
