    contract customers (enterprise / contact-sales).

  note: >-
    The raw TCP AIS stream (streamingv2.ais.spire.com:56784) authenticates by
    sending the authorization token on the socket after connecting; the same
    account token authorizes both GraphQL and the TCP stream. This is NOT an
    HTTP Authorization header - it is an application-layer token exchange over
    the TCP socket.
