Modes

Chat has its own ladder, not Importer's single $19.99 production tier. Pick how messages are stored, then match publishable keys and entitlements.

Mode	Price	What Bootstrapware stores
Local / demo	Free forever	Nothing, `createLocalAdapter` (browser / memory)
BYO	$9.99 / workspace / mo	App config only. You implement a `ChatAdapter`; messages stay on your backend.
Hosted	$19.99 / workspace / mo	App config + messages + files. 1 GB included. You moderate in the dashboard.

Resolve order

The React component picks storage like this (explicit adapter always wins):

If adapter is passed → use it (BYO callbacks or createLocalAdapter).
Else if both appId and publishableKey are set → Hosted.
Else → createLocalAdapter (demo / free).

Live entitlements

Call	Requirement
Test keys (`bsw_test_*`)	No paid Chat entitlement
Live publishable config fetch	BYO ($9.99) or Hosted ($19.99)
Live Hosted messages / files	Hosted ($19.99) only
Local adapter	Free, does not call the Chat API

Publishing an app does not skip these checks. Optional Chat storage add-on ($9.99) raises Hosted files from 1 GB to 10 GB and is not stack-discounted. Stack discount (2nd product 25% off that product's list, 3rd+ 35%) is company-wide, see pricing.

Hosted cancel

Cancel Hosted: freeze writes immediately; dashboard JSON export for 30 days; then delete Hosted messages and objects. BYO content on your backend is unaffected.
