- free tier: BASIC (free) account: 1 GB storage, 100 MB / 500 pages max per document, unlimited number of publications, 5 private publications. | unit: GB | metered on: stored-bytes | read on: 2026-10-21 | source: [1]

- egress: Flipbook viewing is free and unmetered for readers, but there is no direct-download of the original on the free tier; the service reserves the right to requote at "2,500 publications or 1,000,000 reads per month" (its own industrial-scale threshold). | metered: no
- identity: email
- interface: webdav, sftp, rclone
- limits note: 1 GB total storage; 100 MB / 500 pages per document; 5 private publications; 1 administrator; 1 folder; 2,500-publication / 1M-read threshold triggers a commercial requote.
- interface detail: wrapper-only
- tooling: No public upload API on BASIC; conversion is browser-driven. No rclone/WebDAV/SFTP.
- composes with: 1 GB/account x unlimited accounts = technically repeatable but 1 GB units with a 100 MB/file cap make 10 TiB == 10,240 accounts. Not viable.
- reliability: Free storage is 1 GB — and conversion failures are common on large PDFs.
- notes: the same as the free tier
