Burst Rate Limits
In addition to monthly quotas, each plan has per-minute burst limits to prevent abuse:
| Metric | Free | Starter | Pro | Business |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Requests/min | 100 | 500 | 2,000 | 10,000 |
| DB Writes/min | 30 | 150 | 600 | 3,000 |
| Uploads/min | 10 | 50 | 200 | 1,000 |
| AI Calls/min | 5 | 25 | 100 | 500 |
Storage Breakdown
The storage quota is shared across three storage types:
| Storage Type | Free | Starter | Pro | Business |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Database | 500 MB | 2 GB | 5 GB | 10 GB |
| File Storage | 2 GB | 5 GB | 25 GB | 100 GB |
| Vector Search | 2K vectors | 20K vectors | 200K vectors | 1M vectors |
| Media Assets | 500 | 5,000 | 50,000 | 200,000 |
AI Token Breakdown
AI tokens are shared across three categories:
| Category | Free | Starter | Pro | Business |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gateway Inference | 50K | 500K | 5M | 50M |
| Embedding Operations | 1K | 10K | 100K | 1M |
| Vector Search Queries | 5K | 50K | 500K | 5M |
Grace Periods
When you approach your monthly quota, Aerostack provides a grace buffer before hard-blocking requests:
| Plan | Grace Buffer |
|---|---|
| Free | 10% over limit |
| Starter | 15% over limit |
| Pro | 20% over limit |
| Business | 20% over limit |
For example, on the Starter plan with 500K API requests/month:
- 0 - 500K: normal operation
- 500K - 575K: grace zone (requests succeed, dashboard warning shown)
- 575K+: hard block (requests return
403)
Grace periods ensure your app does not suddenly break when you hit a limit. Use the usage API (GET /api/billing/usage) to monitor your consumption and upgrade proactively.
Enterprise Plan
The Enterprise plan uses the Business tier as a base with custom overrides negotiated per account. Enterprise features include:
- Unlimited resources across all categories
- Custom limits stored as JSON overrides in the database
- Dedicated support with SLA guarantees
- Custom marketplace fees (negotiable)
- SSO/SAML integration
- Audit logs with extended retention
- Dedicated infrastructure options
Contact [email protected] for Enterprise pricing.
Marketplace Fee
All plans include a marketplace fee on revenue earned from community marketplace sales (functions, skills, agents). Enterprise customers can negotiate custom rates.
The marketplace fee applies only to revenue you earn as a creator. Using marketplace tools as a consumer is covered by the pay-per-use wallet.
Switching Plans
Upgrading
When you upgrade, the new plan takes effect immediately. You are charged the prorated difference for the remainder of your current billing period.
Downgrading
When you downgrade or cancel, you keep your current plan until the end of the billing period. After that, you move to the lower plan. Resources exceeding the new plan’s limits become read-only until you delete them or upgrade again.
Before downgrading, check that your current resource usage fits within the target plan’s limits. The dashboard shows which resources would exceed the new plan.
