Daily category price
For accepted new-company sequence n: P(1) = $0 and P(n) = n dollars for n ≥ 2. The exact sequence is $0, $2, $3, $4… and restarts for every category at 00:00 IST.
Ranking model
The auction math, without mystery.
Every accepted event enters one immutable ledger. Prices, totals, and ranks are derived from that ledger so concurrency cannot create duplicate slots or mutable rank records.
Canonical identity
A normalized platform plus destination key identifies the company. The same company in the same category and IST day returns the existing claim instead of taking another free place.
Period score
Score(company, category, window) = the sum of confirmed amounts in that window. Free accepted events contribute $0 but remain eligible rows. Unverified quotes contribute nothing.
Deterministic rank
Rows sort by score descending, then earliest score time, earliest accepted event, and finally stable company ID. Rank is always computed; it is never stored or manually edited.

Payment boundary
Free claims, uploads, rankings, pagination, and tracked redirects are live and persistent. Dollar amounts above $0 are quotes only until a payment provider confirms settlement server-side.
