All subscription plans include usage that is subject to this Fair Use policy. Below is a rule-of-thumb for determining which projects fall within our definition of "Fair Use" and which do not.

  • Static sites
  • Hybrid apps
  • Frontend apps
  • Single page applications
  • Functions that query DBs or APIs
  • Blogs, ecommerce, and marketing sites
  • Proxies and VPNs
  • Media hosting for hot-linking
  • Scrapers
  • Crypto Mining
  • Load Testing

As a guideline for our community, we expect most users to fall within the below ranges for each plan. We will notify you if your usage is an outlier. Our goal is to be as permissive as possible while not allowing an unreasonable burden on our infrastructure. Where possible, we'll reach out to you ahead of any action we take to address unreasonable usage and work with you to correct it.

Edge Middleware CPU Limits - Edge Middleware can use no more than 50ms of CPU time on average. This limitation refers to the actual net CPU time, not the execution time. For example, when you are blocked from talking to the network, the time spent waiting for a response does not count toward CPU time limitations.

For members of our Pro plan, we offer a pay-as-you-go model for additional usage, giving you greater flexibility and control over your usage. The typical monthly usage guidelines above are still applicable, while extra usage will be automatically charged at the following rates:

Pro
Bandwidth
$40 per 100 GB increment
Serverless Function Execution
$40 per 100 GB-Hrs increment
Edge Middleware Invocations
$0.65 per 1,000,000 increment
$5 per 1000 increment
