Vendor	Tier	Description	Read / catalogue date
Vercel	Hobby	Hobby plan, $0 a month, for non-commercial personal use only. Includes 100 GB Fast Data Transfer, 1M Edge Requests, 1M Function Invocations, 4 hours Fluid Active CPU, 360 GB-hrs Fluid Provisioned Memory, 1 GB Blob Storage and 5K image transformations a month. Hobby accounts are limited to these caps and cannot buy more usage. Pro is $20 a month with one deploying seat; each additional deploying seat is $20 a month. Vercel restricts Hobby to non-commercial personal use: a deployment used for anyone's financial gain, including a paid employee or consultant writing the code, needs a Pro or Enterprise plan. (From vercel.com/docs/limits/fair-use-guidelines, read 2026-10-04.) In most cases, exceeding Hobby plan usage limits requires waiting 30 days before using the feature again. (From vercel.com/docs/plans/hobby, read 2026-10-07.) On Hobby, Vercel's terms let it use your content to train its AI models and share it with third parties for their model training; you can opt out in your team settings. (From vercel.com/legal/terms, read 2026-10-07.) Hobby teams get 10 GB of Deployment Storage; going over it can block new deployments until you delete some. (From vercel.com/changelog/hobby-projects-now-retain-fewer-deployments-to-free-up-storage, read 2026-10-07.) After 30 days, Vercel deletes a Hobby project's old deployments except its 3 most recent production deployments, its 3 most recent deployments of any type and its current production deployment. A team over its 10 GB of Deployment Storage loses those other deployments immediately. (From vercel.com/changelog/hobby-projects-now-retain-fewer-deployments-to-free-up-storage, read 2026-10-12.) Flat Rate CDN is available on Pro plans. Pro includes the lowest tier at no extra cost: 1M CDN requests and 1 TB of data transfer a month. Paid tiers are $20 a month for 10M requests and 50 TB, $100 for 50M and 50 TB, and $300 for 150M and 50 TB. A Pro team turns it on in Billing settings. Usage above a tier moves the team to a higher tier at the start of the next cycle. Flat Rate CDN is not for bulk file distribution or download services, or large-scale media or file delivery that uses most bandwidth. (From vercel.com/docs/pricing/flat-rate-cdn, read 2026-10-16.) Vercel's Hobby plan needs no credit card. (From vercel.com/docs/plans/pro-plan/trials, read 2026-10-22.)	2026-11-07

One free Postgres database (256 MB RAM, 1 GB storage, 30-day expiry) and one free Key Value instance (25 MB, not continuously persisted to disk) per workspace. 5 GB bandwidth/month included then $0.15/GB; without a payment method on file, Render suspends Free services for the rest of the month instead. 500 build minutes/month. Up to 25 services, unlimited projects with 2 environments each. Pro is $25 a month plus compute. Render's docs say not to use Free instances for production applications. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-05.) Free web services cannot send outbound traffic on ports 25, 465, or 587, commonly used for SMTP. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-05.) A free Postgres database expires 30 days after creation and becomes inaccessible. You then have a 14-day grace period to upgrade to a paid plan before Render deletes it with all its data. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-05.) Free Postgres databases have no backups of any kind. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-05.) A free web service loses any changes to its local filesystem, such as uploaded images or a SQLite database, every time it redeploys, restarts or spins down, and it cannot attach a persistent disk. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-05.) If a workspace uses all 750 free instance hours in a month, Render suspends all of its free web services until the start of the next month. (From render.com/docs/free, read 2026-10-12.) Render's free web services need no credit card. (From render.com/articles/platforms-with-a-real-free-tier-for-developers-in-2026, read 2026-10-22.)

On the Free plan an account's Workers get 100,000 requests a day, shared with Pages Functions and reset at midnight UTC. Past that, a route set to fail closed returns Cloudflare's error 1027, and a route set to fail open skips the Worker as if none were configured. (From developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/limits, read 2026-10-06.) On the Free plan a request may use 10 ms of CPU time; one that uses more fails with error 1102. Time spent waiting on fetch calls, KV reads or database queries does not count. (From developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/limits, read 2026-10-06.) Cloudflare's terms prohibit processing or collecting credit card information on any site using its free services. (From cloudflare.com/terms, read 2026-10-06.) Cloudflare's subscription agreement's list of restrictions does not include commercial use. The only restriction specific to free services bars processing or collecting credit card information on the site. (From cloudflare.com/terms, read 2026-10-29.) Cloudflare's subscription agreement bars signing up for the services on behalf of a third party unless Cloudflare permits it in writing. (From cloudflare.com/terms, read 2026-10-29.) Cloudflare may change a Worker's workers.dev subdomain for any reason. Custom domains are not affected. (From cloudflare.com/service-specific-terms-developer-platform, read 2026-10-06.) Until December 1, 2026, Workers Logs on the Free plan allows 200,000 log events written per day with 3-day retention; from that date it allows 0.5 GB of log and trace ingestion per day for the whole account with seven-day retention. The Paid plan includes 20 million log events per month, then $0.60 per additional million, with 7-day retention. (From developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/pricing, read 2026-10-17.) From December 1, 2026, all Cloudflare logs and traces use the same pricing model. These share one account-level ingestion and storage allowance: Workers Logs, Workers Traces, Cloudflare Traces, Containers logs, R2 Data Access Logs, AI Gateway logs and Issues. Free includes 0.5 GB of ingestion per day and seven-day retention; ingestion stops at the daily limit and resumes at 00:00 UTC. Paid includes 50 GB of ingestion and 10 GB-month of storage per billing cycle, then $0.25 per GB of ingestion and $0.10 per GB-month of storage.

Netlify	Free	The Free plan is $0 with a limit of 300 credits per month, covering production deploys (15 credits each), compute (10 credits per GB-hour), bandwidth (20 credits per GB) and web requests (2 credits per 10k requests). Netlify says the Free plan is always free, with hard monthly limits that cannot be exceeded or incur costs; extra credits need a paid plan. Personal is $9 a month with 1,000 credits. If one site uses up the Free plan's monthly credits, Netlify pauses every site on the account until the next billing cycle or an upgrade. (From docs.netlify.com/manage/accounts-and-billing/billing/billing-for-credit-based-plans/billing-faq-for-credit-based-plans, read 2026-10-07.) Paused sites show a "Site not available" page, take no traffic or form submissions, and cannot get new production deploys. (From docs.netlify.com/manage/accounts-and-billing/billing/billing-for-credit-based-plans/billing-faq-for-credit-based-plans, read 2026-10-07.) New Free-plan projects created on or after August 19, 2026 show a "Powered by Netlify" badge to every visitor by default; you can turn it off for each project under Project configuration > General. (From docs.netlify.com/manage/projects/powered-by-netlify-badge, read 2026-10-12.) Netlify Database compute and bandwidth use the same 300 monthly credits as other Free plan features. Compute costs 10 credits per unit, with one unit used per hour at 1 compute unit. Bandwidth costs 20 credits per GB. This allows about 30 hours of database activity if no other features use credits. (From docs.netlify.com/build/data-and-storage/netlify-database/billing-and-usage, read 2026-10-21.) On the Free plan, an account can have 3 databases. Each runs at 1 compute unit, sleeps after 5 minutes without activity and cannot be set to stay on.

(From docs.netlify.com/build/data-and-storage/netlify-database/billing-and-usage, read 2026-10-21.) Netlify's Free plan needs no credit card; the paid Personal and Pro plans need a payment method. (From docs.netlify.com/manage/accounts-and-billing/billing/billing-for-credit-based-plans/billing-faq-for-credit-based-plans, read 2026-10-22.) Netlify says its Free plan can be used for commercial projects as well as personal sites, in a blog post dated November 12, 2024. (From netlify.com/blog/introducing-netlify-free-plan, read 2026-10-23.) An agent can deploy to Netlify with no account using the --allow-anonymous flag. The deploy gets a live URL, and a person has one hour to claim it by logging in or signing up. Sites using serverless or edge functions still need an account. (From docs.netlify.com/start/quickstarts/deploy-from-ai-code-generation-tool, read 2026-10-22.)	2026-10-28
Cloudflare Pages	Free	Up to 100 projects, unlimited bandwidth, 500 builds/month, 100 custom domains per project. The project limit is not routinely increased. Cloudflare recommends starting new projects on Workers, its primary platform for building applications. (From developers.cloudflare.com/pages, read 2026-10-06.) Pages Functions and Workers requests share a daily free limit of 100,000 that resets at midnight UTC. Static asset requests are free and unlimited. (From developers.cloudflare.com/pages/functions/pricing, read 2026-10-06.) At the daily limit, fail open serves static assets without Functions. Fail closed returns an error page. Each project chooses one mode. (From developers.cloudflare.com/pages/functions/routing, read 2026-10-06.) On the Free plan, one build runs at a time per account. Builds time out after 20 minutes.

(From cloudflare.com/service-specific-terms-developer-platform, read 2026-10-06.) Cloudflare Pages' free plan needs no credit card. (From cloudflare.com/products/pages, read 2026-10-22.)

Unclaimed VMs are deleted with their files. Railway caps free VMs at high demand. (From docs.railway.com/pricing/free-trial, read 2026-11-02.) Railway Sandboxes are available on every plan. Usage draws from the plan's included credit. Free plan limits are 10 sandboxes per environment, 2 vCPU and 2 GB each, and an idle timeout of at most 5 minutes.

If you use up the trial's resources, or do not add a payment method within 7 days, your apps stop running and you cannot launch new machines, attach volumes or deploy changes until billing is set up. Adding a card ends the free trial and starts billing. (From docs.fly.io/about/free-trial, read 2026-11-03.) Fly.io offers Sprites, its Linux VMs for AI agents, with a one-time $30 trial credit.

Delayed Jobs get 342,857 vCPU-seconds and 642,857 GiB-seconds a month, and worker pools 384,204 vCPU-seconds and 728,744 GiB-seconds (Google states each free tier at us-central1 prices). Google Cloud's Free Tier requires a billing account. (From docs.cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features, read 2026-10-07.) Usage beyond the Free Tier's monthly limits is billed at standard rates. (From docs.cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features, read 2026-10-07.) Google Cloud's Terms of Service grant use for customer applications with material value independent of the services. The terms restrict resale and circumventing fees but do not prohibit commercial use. (From cloud.google.com/terms, read 2026-10-29.) Free Tier monthly usage limits are calculated per billing account. (From docs.cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features, read 2026-10-29.) Google Cloud's terms prohibit creating multiple projects to simulate a single project or circumvent usage limits.

(From docs.cloud.google.com/docs/starter-tier, read 2026-10-12.) In Tier 1 regions such as Iowa (us-central1), the default request-based rates past the free tier are $0.000024 per vCPU-second, $0.0000025 per GiB-second, and $0.40 per million requests. In Tier 2 regions such as London (europe-west2), the rates are $0.0000336 per vCPU-second and $0.0000035 per GiB-second. (From cloud.google.com/run/pricing, read 2026-10-29.) When a spend cap is hit, Cloud Run workloads pause. Services return 5xx errors. The cap resets on the first day of the next billing cycle. (From docs.cloud.google.com/run/docs/configuring/billing-settings, read 2026-10-29.) Spend cap enforcement is not instant. Any cost overages before enforcement are billed as normal.
