The largest cut was at keyapi.ai: basic decreased from $189 / mo to $59 / month (-68.8%) on 2026-10-15. These changes were recorded at the named plans and should be assessed against the specific offer a buyer is considering, rather than treated as a uniform market move.

Method: AEPI counts a price change only when the same plan from the same provider is observed at a new standing price in the same currency on consecutive days; held candidates and currency effects are not counted. Prose is written strictly from the numbers above (luna-from-facts). Live series at aepi.ai. Not investment or pricing advice.
