# Pricing

A free tier that's the full product, hard-capped so it can never silently start billing —
and zero egress fees at every scale.

## Evaluate with a real workload

The free tier isn't a demo — it's the full CDN with every feature enabled, capped by
volume. Custom domains, automatic SSL, image optimization, purging, and analytics are
all included.

Exceeding the cap pauses delivery rather than charging you. Paid usage is opt-in with an
explicit budget, so there's no way to accidentally run up a bill.

Beyond the free tier

$0.25 per million requests

Set a monthly usage budget on the billing page and keep serving past 500k requests.
Overage bills hourly from your prepaid balance, and delivery pauses when the budget
is spent — never a surprise bill. Egress stays free.

## Zero egress. That's the pricing model.

Most CDN bills are mostly bandwidth. Ours isn't a line item at all — data transfer out is
included at every scale, in every region.

### Same price everywhere

No regional bandwidth tiers or premium routes. Traffic served from São Paulo costs the same as traffic served from London: nothing.

### Hard caps by default

Free tiers pause at their limits instead of billing. The only way to spend money is to explicitly set a budget first.

### Volume pricing at scale

Enterprise volume pay-as-you-go from $499/month with volume request pricing, a 99.99% SLA, and an account manager.

## Pricing FAQ

Everything you need to know about how CDN billing works.

### Is the free tier really free?

Yes. A card on file is required (it's how we keep abuse out), but the free tier itself never charges. It's sized to evaluate the CDN with a real workload — 3 deployments and 500k requests a month.

### What happens if I exceed the free tier?

Nothing silent. Free tiers are hard-capped by default: exceeding the request cap pauses delivery rather than starting billing. Set a usage budget on the billing page to keep serving at $0.25 per million requests — billed from your prepaid balance, pausing again only if the budget runs out.

### Are there really no egress fees?

Really. Bandwidth is included at every scale, in every region. You pay nothing for data transfer out — which is where traditional CDN and cloud bills hide most of their cost.

### What about high-traffic sites?

Enterprise volume pay-as-you-go starts at $499/month, with volume request pricing, a 99.99% SLA, and an account manager. Talk to us and we'll price your workload precisely.

### Do I need a plan to use custom domains or SSL?

No. Custom domains, automatic SSL, image optimization, purging, and analytics are all included in the free tier — the free tier is the product, just capped by volume.
