the raw page is mirrored to R2). 12 of the 30 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 18 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 113 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the answering-service price normalised to a cost per CALL at a funeral home's real volume - because the market quotes a base plan, a per-minute rate and a per-call overage and no two of them compare - beside the deathcare-specific terms a general answering service does not carry (first-call handling, removal dispatch, director escalation), and the website side normalised to first-year total (setup plus twelve months) rather than the monthly headline; the derived figures are the cost per call at 20, 60 and 120 calls a month, the share of suppliers publishing a price, and the AI-versus-live-operator spread on the same volume", "embed": "
