Where the Prices Disappear
These tools publish some prices and hide others behind “contact sales” — almost always the top tier, which is exactly the one a growing team ends up on. The count is of plans listed on the vendor’s own pricing page with no number attached.

Not Measurable (and Why That Is Not a Bad Score)
Our reader could not extract plans from these pages, so they are excluded from the ranking rather than penalised. A blocked or JavaScript-only pricing page tells you what our automated reader can see — it says nothing about whether the vendor publishes prices to a human visitor. Scoring them would make this dataset wrong, so we don’t.

Methodology
Every week our monitor reads each vendor’s official pricing page and records the plans it lists. A plan counts as published when it shows a monthly or annual price — a free plan counts, since $0 is a price. A plan counts as “contact sales” when the vendor lists it but attaches no number. The grade is the share of published plans: A is 100%, B is 75% or more, C is 50% or more, D is 25% or more, F is below that. We do not estimate prices, do not use third-party databases, and do not score pages we could not read.

How is the transparency score calculated?
