The math is separate from the monetization.

CallEconomics is built around deterministic formulas and evidence states. Affiliate commission is never an input to pricing, break-even, compatibility, or ranking calculations.

1. Revenue and gross profit are separate

Revenue at risk is a top-line opportunity estimate. Break-even and ROI use gross profit per job when available. If gross profit is unknown, true ROI is not shown.

2. Provider billing is normalized

Every eligible published plan is evaluated for the same workload. The engine selects the lowest verified effective cost; it does not assume that moving to a higher tier is automatically cheaper.

3. Missing evidence stays missing

Pricing records support confirmed, estimated, unknown, conflicted, custom-quote, and needs-verification outcomes. Unknown overage rates are not treated as zero.

4. Recovery rates are scenarios

Conservative, moderate and optimistic recovery values are scenario controls. They are not claims about any provider's actual conversion performance.

5. Pricing carries a verification date

The current development snapshot is dated October 4, 2026. Production pages should be reverified on a recurring evidence-review workflow.
