Ambee Finops

FinOps view of Ambee API spend. Ambee bills on a contract / subscription basis negotiated per Enterprise agreement, with an Evaluation trial for pre-purchase testing. Cost is driven primarily by request volume across products (air quality, pollen, weather, fire, soil, NDVI), historical-data depth, and any bulk dataset or webhook delivery. Exact rates are quoted by Ambee sales and are not reconciled here.
