Como compilamos isto
Pricing re-verified via WebFetch against each vendor's official pricing page (getstream.io/chat/pricing, sendbird.com/pricing/chat, pubnub.com/pricing, cometchat.com/pricing, ably.com/pricing, pusher.com/channels/pricing, twilio.com/en-us/messaging/pricing/conversations-api, mirrorfly.com/pricing.php, zegocloud.com ZIM docs). Compliance verified against each vendor's official security/compliance page and corroborated via WebSearch; a flag is set true ONLY when the vendor explicitly states it, otherwise null. KEY CORRECTION: CometChat Basic/Advanced prices are NOT published on the official page (only '$' placeholders render; sign-up/contact-sales required), so monthlyUsd is set to null and billingModel to custom — the prior $299/$449 figures were third-party (dupple.com/trtc.io) approximations and are not carried. PubNub gdpr set to null (the compliance page cites the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, not GDPR explicitly). MirrorFly Essentials/Premium remain null (no public prices). All data accessed at 2026-06-15.
