Homelab-friendly: Solo is one site with offsite for $24.99/year. Starter covers up to 5 sites and one offsite for $99/year — without agency-scale pricing.
Agency math: At full capacity, paid plans land around $0.20 – $1.65 per site per month — a fraction of typical per-site SaaS backup fees, while you keep self-hosted control.
