- free tier: 5 GB on the plan listed as Free Trial, priced 'Lifetime Free'; paid Lite 100 GB, Pro 1 TB, Enterprise 5 TB | unit: GiB | metered on: stored-bytes | read on: 2026-10-21 | source: [1]

- egress: Not published; FTP is offered on paid tiers with a bandwidth limit | metered: no | source: [1]
- identity: email | detail: an email address
- interface: unknown
- limits:
  - request-rate: API calls are a paid-tier entitlement: 10 million a month on Pro, 50 million on Enterprise [1]
  - per-object-cap (binding): 5 GB is the free tier total, which is the cap in practice [1]
- binding note: 5 GB free, and the API is metered by a paid-tier entitlement, so there is no free programmatic path at any capacity.
- tooling: reverse-engineered. A draft rclone backend, pull request 6808, whose description states 'API is not publicly available. Protocol and API were discovered with official Linux client.', was opened 2023-03-06 and closed unmerged on 2026-02-26; it is in no release
- composes with: Had the rclone backend landed this would be a clean one-line remote. It did not: the pull request was closed unmerged on 2026-02-26, and rclone's maintainer required someone to commit to maintaining a backend whose API is not public
- reliability: The draft rclone backend was closed unmerged on 2026-02-26 and the API is not public. Do not plan on it
- notes: Both a quota failure and a tooling failure, recorded as fails-quota because the quota is the first thing a reader checks. The API being a paid-tier entitlement is the part that would surprise a reader who assumed the draft rclone backend implied free access.

  - access_mode: registration-gated
  - rclone_backend: PR 6808, closed unmerged on 2026-02-26, not in any release
