What your budget buys
The starter gives a small team a defined amount of professional work on access design, eligible setup and connection/removal checks. Findings and handover are part of the timebox, including when a prerequisite prevents completed access.
$20.60 less at full use
The comparison assumes both hours are used. Scope is one site/resource, up to three users and five supported devices. Work stops with findings at the time limit; completed access is not guaranteed. Licenses, hardware and continuing service are separate, with no automatic renewal.
