| Limits |
per-ip-shaping: upload speed throttled above 5 TB, described by HN as a 'harsh inflection' around 16 TB. Quotas are quoted in decimal TB, not TiB — rclone about reports 9.095 TiB for a 10 TB plan (forum.rclone.org/t/45928), so the real capacity is ~9% smaller than the marketing number. |
| Identity | email email |
| Egress | No egress charge — 'No bandwidth limitation' is listed on Home 1 TB, and the Unlimited plan's only stated constraint is upload throttling, not download metering. |
| Per-object cap | not stated |
| Retention | not stated |
| Interface | rest, rclone, cli rest |
| Tooling | Tier 2 rclone backend (md5, ModTime R/W, case-insensitive, metadata RWU) — one of the few Tier-2 providers that is also a real commercial backup service. Duplicati lists Jottacloud as a natively supported provider. Official CLI plus rclone+restic documented by HN commenters. |
| Composes with | The only candidate here whose free-tier ceiling is 'unlimited' at a flat price, so it is the single account that can absorb a whole 20 TB archive without sharding — at the cost of upload speed past 5 TB. Pairs naturally as the durable tier under rclone crypt. |
| Reliability | Long-running, well-documented provider; the throttle is policy, not breakage. The TB-vs-TiB reporting gap is measured, not speculative. |

| Egress | No egress fee and no download throttle. Vendor text: 'Reduced upload speed means that uploading files from your device to Jottacloud might take a little longer.
