| Free tier | No allowance could be read: https://www.border0.com/pricing returns a 404 body. The home page offers 'Start for free today' with no number and no plan table. unit none; metered on unstated |

| Price | unverified |

| Binding | none No meter is published to bind. The deciding fact is elsewhere: the socket families carry no UDP and the generic TCP socket is explicitly 'with authentication', so a public unauthenticated reader is not the shape of the product. |

| Identity | email a portal account at portal.border0.com/register; the company is now part of Tailscale |

| Egress | unverified: no plan or allowance page could be read; ingress: tcp free allowance: none published |

| Composes with | composes with nothing: it is a private access layer with authenticated sockets |

| Reliability | an acquired product with 'no short-term migrations planned' is a moving target; expect the control plane to fold into Tailscale |
|---|
| Notes | The 404 and the Tailscale sales link have three possible causes: the provider is dead, the pricing path moved, or the reader rewrote the link. The blog post and a law-firm deal note show the provider is dead only in part - the company was acquired on 2026-03-17 - but its docs still serve and the product still runs, so the record is fails-egress rather than dead. The reader did not rewrite the link: the origin returned a real 404 body with upstream_status 404. |
|---|
| Evidence note | documented The socket list and the acquisition are first-party and dated today. The free allowance is unverified because the pricing page is gone. |
