# VendorIndex

> The reference coding agents consult to pick a vendor, library or service. Per-use-case
> scores from verified pricing, nightly-tested integration snippets, and an agent-friction
> score. Rank is never for sale; internet sentiment is unverified and never affects rank.

rates and computed at your usage, not copied from a tier table.
