Plan Limits

Press.js Cloud enforces usage limits per plan. These limits are defined in the billing policy — here’s exactly what each plan allows.

Plan comparison

Limit	Free	Starter ($9/mo)	Pro ($29/mo)
Render timeout	15s	60s	60s
Concurrent render jobs	1	10	50
External network access	—	✓	✓
Files per deploy commit	50	200	500
Bytes per deploy commit	25 MB	50 MB	100 MB
Max render output size	50 MB	200 MB	200 MB
Render jobs / month	500	∞	∞
Render time / month	10 min	150 min	600 min
Deploy commits / month	100	∞	∞
Storage	1 GB	10 GB	50 GB

Note on concurrent render jobs: The concurrency limits above are user-level limits — the maximum number of render jobs your account can run simultaneously. Actual concurrency may be lower depending on overall platform load. When the platform is under heavy load, render jobs join a shared public queue and queue wait times may increase. This ensures fair scheduling across all tenants.

Upload session limits

These limits apply when uploading artifacts through the API or CLI.

Limit	Value
Max individual file size	10 MB
Max session total bytes	256 MB
Max files per session	5,000
Session TTL	1 hour
Commit lock timeout	5 minutes

Render payload lifecycle

Render job payloads (the JSON or binary data passed to a render job) are scoped to a single render job. They are available only while that job is rendering and are deleted immediately after the render succeeds or reaches a terminal failure.

What happens when you hit a limit

Hard limits (enforced synchronously)

These are enforced at request time and return an error immediately:

Error code	Trigger
upload_session_policy_limit_exceeded	Upload session exceeds file count or byte limit
upload_blob_too_large	A single file exceeds the max blob size
upload_session_too_large	Session exceeds max files or total bytes
deploy_commit_policy_limit_exceeded	Deploy commit exceeds file count or byte limit
storage_limit_exceeded	Account storage exceeds the plan limit

Bill-period quotas (enforced atomically)

These are checked against accumulated usage in the current billing period:

Error code	Trigger
deploy_commit_quota_exceeded	Deploy commits exceed monthly allowance
render_job_quota_exceeded	Render jobs exceed monthly allowance
render_time_quota_exceeded	Render time exceeds monthly allowance

Bill-period quotas are checked atomically at the database level — concurrent requests can’t race past the limit.

Per-request render timeout

When creating a render job, you can request a custom render timeout. The platform clamps it to the plan’s maxRenderTimeoutMs:

{
  "deployId": "your-deploy-id",
  "deployVersionId": "your-version-id",
  "renderTimeoutMs": 30000
}

If the requested timeout exceeds the plan limit, the request succeeds but the timeout is silently clamped to the plan maximum.
