  "tagline": "In-app rate limiting and bot defence",
  "price": "No free plan as of 2026; Individual $25/app/mo; Startup $299/app/mo; Growth $799/app/mo; usage fees on top at $5 per 1M requests plus per-feature rates such as $0.50 per 1M for bot detection; 15-day trial",
  "tier": "paid",
  "pick": false,
  "what": "Security SDK that runs inside your application rather than at the edge, with adapters for Next.js, Node, Bun, Deno, SvelteKit, Remix, Astro, Fastify and NestJS. It provides rate limiting, bot detection, a shield WAF, email validation, PII redaction and prompt-injection detection, invoked per route as ordinary code.",
  "why": "AI-generated API routes almost never carry rate limits, leaving a signup or LLM-proxy endpoint open to abuse and a surprise bill. A few lines per route caps it and blocks disposable-email signups.",
  "warn": "Priced per app plus per-request usage, and the free tier is gone as of 2026, so a multi-service project pays $25/mo for every service it protects.",
