FAQ
If the protocol is free, why pay?
You pay for hosted performance, curation, multi-host AMB distribution, ranking, SLA, and enterprise controls — the Premium Index operators run, not a license to read the spec.
Can others run their own index?
Yes. That is intentional. Agents still prefer the fastest, most trusted, best-distributed hosted index.
Federal / SDVOSB?
Use Enterprise / Federal. Active SAM entity, UEI/CAGE on request. We do not advertise GSA Schedule or FedRAMP unless held.
