The last unverified price on the comparison pages, and the one I explicitly refused to guess at in #21.

Why it took interacting with the page

DBeaver's buy page renders nothing useful on load. The figures only appear once a per-edition quantity widget calculates — which is why two earlier attempts came back empty:

input[name="license-quantity"]  .dbeaver-license-widget-shell__qty

Driving that widget gives the desktop tiers. Confirmed on two separate runs, and corroborated independently by dbeaver.com/edition:

Edition Price
Lite $113/yr
Enterprise $255/yr
Ultimate $510/yr

So from $99/yr PRO understated the entry point by $14.

The trap: $810 / $410 / $255 / $155 / $82 do render without interaction, which made the page look like it had already answered. Those are Team Edition per-role prices (Administrator, Developer, Manager, Editor, Viewer) — a completely different product line.

The FAQ was wrong in a more interesting way

"DBeaver Pro adds NoSQL support, ER diagrams, and visual query builder for $25 a month."

The features are rightdbeaver.com/edition confirms ER diagrams and the visual query builder first appear in Lite, and NoSQL/BigData is in every paid tier including Lite.

The price belongs to a different tier. Lite is $113/yr (~$12/mo); $25–26/mo is Enterprise. The FAQ had Lite's feature list at Enterprise's rate.

Both halves corrected, stated annually to match every other price on the site, and Enterprise named for what it actually adds (DBA dashboards, Git integration, task scheduling).

ogCompetitorMetaHtml quotes no price for DBeaver (Java/Eclipse · ~8s start · ~800 MB RAM · Cross-platform), so no OG regeneration is needed.

The homepage comparison table reads rows[0], so it picks this up automatically.

Verification

Grepped the whole repo for other DBeaver price mentions — none. Every price on every comparison page is now verified against the vendor.

The last unverified price on the comparison pages. Their buy page renders
nothing useful on load — the figures only appear once a per-edition quantity
widget calculates, which is why two earlier attempts came back empty and the
number was left alone rather than guessed at.

Driving that widget gives the desktop tiers, confirmed on two separate runs and
corroborated by dbeaver.com/edition:

    Lite        $113/yr
    Enterprise  $255/yr
    Ultimate    $510/yr

So "from $99/yr PRO" understated the entry point by $14. The $810/$410/$255/
$155/$82 figures that do render without interaction are Team Edition per-role
prices, which is what made the page look like it had already answered.

The FAQ was wrong in a more interesting way: it priced DBeaver PRO's NoSQL
support, ER diagrams and visual query builder at "$25 a month". Those three are
what the Lite tier adds, at $113 a year — roughly $12 a month. The $25 was
Enterprise's rate attached to Lite's feature list. Both halves are corrected and
stated annually, matching every other price on the site, and Enterprise is named
for what it actually adds.
