## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-22 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## The short answer
> 
> For agency work the ranking is different than for a product team, because your constraints are: **many isolated client projects, rotating staff/contractors, and an eventual handoff where the client takes over the bill.** Per-seat pricing and per-MAU pricing are what kill you. So:
> 
> **1. ConfigCat** - my default recommendation for agencies. Pricing is based on config JSON downloads, *not* per seat, per MAU, or per service connection, and team size is unlimited on every plan including free. That means you can put every dev, PM, and the client's own stakeholders in the dashboard at no extra cost - which is exactly the agency shape. It's organized into "products," so each client gets a clean boundary. Forever Free covers 10 flags / 2 environments / 2 products / 5M downloads, with Pro at $110/mo. ([pricing](https://configcat.com/pricing/), [why not per-seat](https://configcat.com/blog/2020/02/06/fair-pricing/))
> 
> **2. Unleash** - best pick when the client will self-host or has data-residency/EU requirements. Open-source core, and the cloud Enterprise tier includes unlimited projects. One comparison puts it as the cheapest entry point among full-featured platforms at ~

Answer Watch records what one AI answer engine said on one date, nothing more. Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
