## Things to know
- Every page runs in a real browser, so even static pages cost at least one 30-second unit; there is no cheaper HTTP tier.
- Browser time is billed whether or not the page succeeds; a successful CAPTCHA solve is billed even if the site then rejects the token.
- Annual billing is 30% cheaper and adds concurrency (monthly concurrency is stored here).
- Proxy traffic through a browser includes page subresources, so proxy units usually dominate cost for heavy pages.
