Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable, but it is tightly capped: 3 monitors, 1 board, 1 admin, 100 subscribers, 10 notifications, and only 1 month of history. Compared with the cheapest paid Starter plan at $72/month, it delivers roughly a quarter of the core capacity and lacks the broader paid limits, so a fair buyer-side estimate is about $18/month. A credit card is not required, and the offer is free forever rather than a short-lived trial, which keeps it above a typical trial-only tier.
