docs.z.ai/devpack/overview states verbatim: 'Starting at just 18 USD per month, with Pro and Max plans designed for high-frequency, complex projects.' Three tiers named in the vendor docs: Lite, Pro, Max, with credit multipliers and peak/off-peak handling. Pro and Max figures are rendered client-side on z.ai/subscribe and could not be read - flagged for a browser check. This is a flat subscription and is NOT the per-token API rate card at docs.z.ai/guides/overview/pricing.
