    I understand Posthook may not be the best solution for everyone's scheduled tasks. It seems like for that project you had the expertise, time, and risk tolerance to set up that one…

    Thank you! Pricing is still subject to change as I get more data from the market but the aim was to price it by the value it provides developers over just going off what the server…
