Team. The recorded monthly price held $20, the annual-billed rate, though this dataset defines the monthly price as the month-to-month figure. The row's own notes name both figures and say which is which, so the correct value was already inside the record: the month-to-month price is $25. Re-based to it, with the annual discount set to this plan's own saving of 20% (it was unrecorded, though both rates are published). Found by a corpus-wide scan on 2026-09-09 for the same error four call-tracking vendors carried, and confirmed against this row's own notes rather than a fresh read; the source date is therefore unchanged. Judged individually: The note names both figures for this same plan in one sentence and the row holds the annual one. Sibling rows settle it twice over: Plus is already $20 flat, so leaving Team at 20 prices a per-seat business tier identically to the consumer tier; and the same file's Claude rows are the identical shape recorded correctly-reconciled (Team Standard: annual $20, month-to-month $25, annual discount 20

ChatGPT currently holds a bronze deskmark here — Rank 6 of 7 · AI Chatbot Assistants. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm and money never touches it.
The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if ChatGPT moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
