Current usage limits

Three allowances define the standard verified account. All your workspaces share them. Your account’s Usage page shows your personal allowances and consumption.

Measurements and events per day

Automatically created accounts start with smaller allowances until their email address is verified. Browser checks explain their additional allowance during setup. Technical safeguards protect the shared service from excessive use. Contact us if you need more capacity.
