## How this tier was reached

Tier is a weighted score across the axes measured for you, so a strong axis offsets a weak one. Plant Manager needs a higher combined score, and cost also caps the tier on its own.
Scored on 5 axes, measured over the trailing 30 days.

| sustain | 30 | 24 | yes | active days in the last 30 |
| cost | $517.68 | <= $104.48 | no | USD per merged PR, lower is better |
