## Commercial product
Solaris is a **paid underwriting API**, not a free calculator and not open-source core.
| Tier | Price | Requests/month | Rate limit |
|:---|:---|---:|---:|
| **Basic** | $24.99/mo | 1,000 | 60/min |

Every tier gets **full access to every endpoint** — the quick screen, the full 25-year model, DSCR covenant tables, scenario stress-testing, batch analysis, and the bankable report payload. There is no free tier and no feature reserved for a higher plan; tiers differ only by monthly request volume and per-minute rate limit. Live pricing and quotas: `GET /pricing`.
