Free Tier Value
This free tier is a small but real starter offering: it includes 2 users and 1 public worker, and the page says it is always free with no credit card and no time limit. Compared with the cheapest paid plan, Starter + at $20,000/year (about $1,667/month), the free tier is only a tiny slice of the paid capability, so a practical buyer-value estimate is about $2/month.
