¹ Price and term are from quotes VETTX gave dealers in 2026 (about $3,000/mo on a 12-month agreement); vettx.com does not publish them and says pricing "depends on your market, its size, and health" (checked Sept 2026). Its cancellation policy (vettx.com/legal/cancellation-policy) says the agreement cannot be cancelled before the original term ends and needs 30 days' written notice at the end. Update cadence and MMR-anchored grading are not published. Confirm current terms with VETTX.
