Model-by-model

Each provider's cheapest comparable (~720p-class) rate per model. Prices within 2% are called a tie, not a win — a $0.0001 gap is noise, not a reason to switch. Every rate shows its tier and whether it's directly verified or reported.

Rows compare each provider's best comparable tier per model — resolutions and tiers are shown inline because a fast 480p endpoint is not the same product as standard 720p. A rate marked reported hasn't been directly verified yet; we never call one a “win” more confidently than its evidence allows. Click a model for every tier on both providers.
