Snapapi Finops

FinOps framework definition for SnapAPI. Provides a FOCUS 1.3-aligned mapping for cost allocation, usage measurement, and unit-economics reporting across the four metered endpoints (screenshot, metadata, text, PDF). SnapAPI bills on a fixed-tier subscription model — there is no per-request line-item pricing once a tier is selected — so unit economics derive from the effective price-per-request implied by each tier's quota.

Snapapi Finops is the FinOps profile for SnapAPI on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 5 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category subscription.

The profile maps 9 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.

Tagged areas include Screenshots, Metadata Extraction, PDF Generation, Text Extraction, and Headless Chromium.
