Providervs its cohort medianMonthly
Position is relative to the provider's own delivery-type median at this tier — never a blended one.
What the figures on this page are. This page is Agentery's fixed-niche view of Shipping Rate Negotiation (latest observation 2026-10-25T04:20:53.032Z). The headline medians above are computed from that data per delivery type and buyer-tier tab: on a tier tab, the median of each provider's plan at that tier; on “All”, every priced plan point across tiers pooled. Small cohorts show as “too few” rather than a median. The embedded response below is the broader fixed-niche report: its by_provider_type.*.median pools all tiers, pricing.byPersona.* is per buyer tier, and the unit cohorts (e.g. Pro flat) are per tier and billing unit — so those blocks legitimately differ from one headline figure. Over MCP today the advertised tools are market_report (a semantic neighbourhood for your query, not this fixed niche) and price_benchmark (query/task); niche_report stays callable as a legacy alias. Their cohorts are defined differently, so their numbers can differ from this page.
