How much does CrewAI cost?

CrewAI publishes its list price on its own site. The WorkForce Labor Index does not republish vendor list prices; instead it publishes a transaction-anchored market rate for each category. The ai agent frameworks category rate is currently held pending input-gate clearance (real eval execution + measured buyer outcomes). Use the WLI methodology to benchmark vendor quotes when the band publishes.

What is the Open Vendor Encyclopedia?

A neutral, transaction-anchored reference comparing AI agent vendors on AQO quality and price against the WorkForce Labor Index. CC-BY-4.0, IOSCO-aligned methodology. Each vendor has an entry; each pair has a comparison page; each category has a market rate.
