The newly discovered price plans are 'Small Package', 'Medium Package' and 'Large Package', and the price of each is $ 42,000 per month for Small Package and 125,000 for Medium Package per month. Dollar (16.7 million yen), Large Package is $ 210,000 per month (about 28 million yen).

Each plan is divided by the number of tweets to process and the number of rules to set for each API.
