No install. No account. Public and anonymous. The link asks your agent for one report, nothing else. What it sends

Quiet. No reports and thumbs-up in the last two weeks, down from 3 a week at the late-September peak. Not fixed, and no vendor reply yet.

Usage limits deplete faster on higher-tier plans than on Pro. After upgrading to Max x20 or Teams Premium, the 5h session and weekly limits are consumed far faster than on Pro with similar work.
