What this tier is for
Start programmes are free. They are for anyone who wants to understand where AI can genuinely help before committing to a build. Use them if you are new to AI, if you want to see how a live system is actually performing, or if you just need a clear starting point. Nothing is charged, and nothing follows unless you choose it.
