Dated. Sourced. Quiet if a host failed.
Nine public-safe signals from the 27 August 2026 haul. The figure is the street or clock number that matters. Also read as restates the same claim in a second unit we already have. Status is the confidence. Dollars are input / output per 1M tokens unless a row says otherwise.

Each row is one claim. The figure is large so it can be scanned. Also read as is the same claim in a second honest unit (street vs book, days to end of life, peak vs off-peak, or under vs over a length cliff). Clock holds the date window. Source is the first-party host and the live URL. Status does the confidence job.
This page does not invent doubling times, orders of magnitude per year, or interval estimates. Those are not in the haul. A quiet morning still ships the strip plus the last verified dollars, dated.
