Good question. The cost estimate uses two components:

1. Bandwidth: total bytes served to bots divided by 1GB, multiplied by $0.09/GB (AWS/Cloudflare blended average rate)

2. Compute: total bot requests divided by 1 million, multiplied by $0.40 (Vercel/Lambda average per million invocations)

Both rates are configurable assumptions — the real value is seeing the relative breakdown between bots and the order of magnitude of waste. Your actual cost depends on your specific hosting provider.
