Pricing beyond the free tier
Hybrid model that pairs a flat monthly subscription (Hobby and Pro tiers, plus custom Enterprise) with usage-based billing for the CPU, memory, storage, and egress your services actually consume. Each plan's base fee doubles as an included usage credit of matching value, and consumption beyond that is billed on top. New accounts get a one-time, time-limited trial credit rather than a permanent free tier, so sustained use effectively requires a paid plan.
