Data health.

Every day a GitHub Action re-fetches all 11 providers, sanity-checks each result against the previous snapshot, and commits the data. When a fetch fails or looks broken, the last good snapshot keeps the site up and the provider is flagged here and on its pages.

Apple prices come straight from the store page; vendors that block bots are checked through a web lookup with a ±40% sanity gate and shown as approximate.

How the pipeline protects the numbers

  • Only fetched numbers. Adapters throw on anything unexpected; nothing is hand-typed.
  • Sanity gate. A fetch whose plan count halves or whose median price moves more than 2.5× is rejected and the previous snapshot kept — a half-broken scraper cannot publish garbage.
  • Alerts. A provider stale for 3+ days opens a rolling GitHub issue that closes itself when the fetch recovers.
  • Price history. Every change is recorded; offer pages show the latest movement.
  • Catalogs refresh too. Model facts and hardware prices are re-fetched weekly with the same gate-and-alert pattern, so the model and rent-vs-buy pages do not drift.
