Where they actually differ

  • They bill on different clocks. Embody charges every 4 weeks and Luci charges every calendar month. That alone changes what a “month” costs, which is the whole reason this index recomputes every price.
  • What they advertise is not what they bill. Embody advertises $79 and bills $86; Luci advertises $99 and bills $169.

How we know

Both figures were read on the seller’s own site and recomputed over a 30.4375-day calendar month from the charge and the billing period it covers. Neither is a seller’s own “/mo”. The full working for each — the charge, the period, the arithmetic and the date it was read — is on its own page: Embody and Luci. The method is set out in how we verify.
