Provenance: Re-fetched both pages via fetch-clean.mjs. The 7shifts pricing page (https://www.7shifts.com/pricing/) is JS-rendered and self-describes as a "Restaurant Scheduling and Payroll Platform" with a restaurant-type "Built For" list (confirms correct vendor, not a sibling), but exposes NO USD price figures in its text. Because prices are hidden behind JS, verification relied on the corroboration: Connecteam's "Honest 7shifts Review" (https://connecteam.com/reviews/7shifts/), updated July 2, 2026, which carries a verbatim June 2026 pricing table: Comp (Free), Essentials $44.99/month ($39.99/month billed annually), Pro $89.99/month, Premium $149.99/month. This confirms VERBATIM the lowest self-serve paid plan (Essentials) at $44.99/month monthly-billed, plus a genuinely free Comp plan (1 location, 15 employees/location). Essentials feature/limit claims all match the table (unlimited locations, 30 employees/location, advanced scheduling, team communication, labor cost controls & budgeting, basic time clocking, permissions). The same review names payroll integrations ADP, Gusto, Paychex, and QuickBooks Online. hipaa=null: no HIPAA statement on either page (security section lists MFA, RBAC, TLS, AES-256, PCI-DSS, IEC 27001, ISO, SOC only). soc2=null: only a vague "Service Organizations Controls (SOC)" mention, never explicitly "SOC 2". Both a verbatim sourced price and freeTier===true survive, so publish=true.
