Cheapest verified plan per vendor, monthly USD list price, no SSO / MFA / SMS. “—” = no fixed published price at that volume. * Logto Pro bills access tokens, not MAU (50k tokens included, then $0.08 per 100) — the figure is base fee only; token overage depends on your usage. How we calculate this.
