What was wrong with the LogRocket pricing on your comparison page?

The page listed LogRocket tiers called "Team" at roughly $99/mo for 10,000 sessions and "Professional" at roughly $295/mo. Neither tier name exists. LogRocket's real plans are Core and Pro, and Pro only becomes mandatory above 100,000 sessions/month. The actual price at LogRocket's default position -- 25,000 sessions, annual billing -- is $176/mo, found by reading the number off first page load, since the pricing slider is a React-controlled input that re-renders its price with a count-up animation that will not reliably fire after a scripted interaction. Above 25,000 sessions we now show "Quote / Contact sales" instead of inventing a number.

What was wrong with the Mapbox pricing?

Two numbers, both too low in one case and mixing up two different products in the other. Static/raster tiles were priced at $1 per 1,000 after the free tier; the real first paid tier is $0.50 per 1,000, so the old number was double the real cost. Geocoding was priced at $5 per 1,000, which is real -- but it's the rate for Mapbox's Permanent Geocoding API, a separate product with no free tier at all. The Temporary Geocoding API, the one almost every developer actually uses because it ships with a free tier, is $0.75 per 1,000. All four free-tier thresholds we had listed -- 50,000 map loads, 200,000 static tiles, 100,000 geocoding requests, 100,000 directions requests -- checked out correctly; only the paid per-unit rates were wrong.

What was wrong with the ElevenLabs pricing?

The dollar price on the entry paid tier was off by one dollar ($5 shown, $6 actual). The character allowances on the Creator and Pro tiers were both understated -- Creator was shown as roughly 100,000 characters when it is actually 121,000, and Pro was shown as roughly 500,000 when it is actually 600,000. More significant: the table stopped at Pro as if it were the top tier, when ElevenLabs actually has two tiers above it -- Scale at $299/mo for 1.8 million credits and three seats, and Business at $990/mo for 6 million credits and ten seats. Anyone scaling past Pro would have seen a dead end that doesn't exist.

How often should an API pricing comparison site re-check its own numbers?

Vendors change tier names, split one product into two billing lines, or add entirely new tiers above their old top tier without a changelog entry anywhere obvious -- none of the three errors here were announced price hikes, they were just pages that had quietly drifted out of date relative to a vendor's current page. The only reliable fix is treating every published price as a claim with an expiry date: re-read the vendor's live pricing page periodically and diff it against what you published, rather than trusting a number because it was correct when you first wrote it.

I Audited Our Own Pricing Pages Against the Vendors. Three Numbers Were Wrong.

18 October 2026 · Site Methodology & Corrections · 5 min read

This site's entire pitch is that our numbers are more trustworthy than a vendor's own marketing page. So this week I picked three pages at random and actually checked them against the vendor, line by line, instead of assuming they were still right. All three had something wrong. One had a tier name that doesn't exist. One mixed up two different products that happen to share a page. One was missing two entire pricing tiers above the one it showed as the top option.

LogRocket: a tier name we made up

Our session-replay comparison page listed LogRocket's tiers as "Team" at about $99/mo for 10,000 sessions and "Professional" at about $295/mo. Neither name is real. LogRocket's actual plans are Core and Pro -- Pro only becomes mandatory once you're above 100,000 sessions a month. Getting the real number out required dealing with a page that fights automated checks: the price updates through a React-controlled slider, and the rendered dollar figure runs a count-up animation that will not fire reliably after a scripted drag of that slider. Four different interaction methods all left the price blank. The one method that worked was reading the number off the page's default, un-interacted state: 25,000 sessions, annual billing, $176/mo. I fixed the table to show Core/Pro with that real anchor point, and anything above 25,000 sessions now reads "Quote / Contact sales" instead of a number I'd have to guess at.

Mapbox: a product mix-up, not just a stale number

Mapbox was wrong in two different ways. Static and raster map tiles were priced at $1 per 1,000 after the free tier; the real first paid rate is $0.50 per 1,000 -- our page would have told a developer their tile bill is double what it actually is. Geocoding was listed at $5 per 1,000, and that number is real, it's just the wrong product: it's Mapbox's Permanent Geocoding API, which has no free tier at all. The Temporary Geocoding API -- the one almost everyone actually integrates, because it ships with a free monthly allowance -- is $0.75 per 1,000. Whoever built the original page grabbed a true number off the wrong row of Mapbox's pricing page. Worth noting: all four free-tier thresholds we had listed (50,000 map loads, 200,000 static tiles, 100,000 geocoding requests, 100,000 directions requests) were already correct. Only the paid per-unit rates needed fixing, and I added the declining-tier rates (tile prices step down further at higher volume) to the disclaimer so the single headline number doesn't look like the whole story.

ElevenLabs: two tiers that just weren't there

Smaller dollar error here -- Starter showed $5, it's actually $6 -- but the character allowances were both understated: Creator showed roughly 100,000 characters against a real 121,000, and Pro showed roughly 500,000 against a real 600,000. The bigger problem was structural. Our table ended at Pro like it was the ceiling. It isn't. ElevenLabs has Scale above it at $299/mo for 1.8 million credits and three seats, and Business above that at $990/mo for 6 million credits and ten seats. Any team outgrowing Pro and checking our page would have seen a wall that doesn't exist in ElevenLabs' actual pricing.

Why this keeps happening

None of these three were announced price hikes I missed. They were just pages that drifted: a vendor renames tiers, splits one API into two billing lines (Mapbox), or quietly adds a tier above their previous top one (ElevenLabs), and none of it shows up as a changelog entry anywhere obvious. A price you published correctly six months ago is a claim with an expiry date, not a fact. The only thing that catches this reliably is going back and actually reading the vendor's current page against what we published, instead of trusting that a number is still right because it used to be.

What I'm doing about it

All three pages are fixed and dated. I'm not treating this as a one-time cleanup -- it's now a recurring pass: periodically pick pages, especially ones with sliders, tiered plans, or multiple product lines that can get confused for each other, and re-verify against the live vendor source rather than assuming the table is still accurate. If you spot a number on this site that looks off, that's the fastest way to find the next one -- tell us and we'll check it the same way.
