## 🎯 Key Findings

### Data Privacy
- **19 of 19 tools** fully evaluated
- **3 tools** achieve Gold Standard security (Continue.dev, Diffblue, BrowserStack)
- **2 tools** have critical red flags (Galileo AI free tiers, Virtuoso QA)
- **Most tools** safe for enterprise with proper tier selection

### Pricing Insights
- **Free options available:** Continue.dev, Google Gemini, Diffblue Community
- **Team tier range:** $10-30/month per user
- **Enterprise tier range:** $39-75/month per user (development tools)
- **Expensive options:** Snyk Enterprise ($35K-90K for 50-100 devs)

### Training Policies
- **Best practice:** No training on customer data (majority of tools)
- **Exceptions:** Virtuoso (trains by default), some design tool free tiers
- **Clear separation:** Most tools have safe paid tiers, riskier free tiers
