| Free tier | 15 GB of free transfer every month plus 5 days of free storage per package. Credit card with a $10 pre-authorisation required at signup. unit GB; metered on stored-bytes |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits |
request-rate/quota: 15 GB transfer per calendar month; retention: 5 days free storage per file, then per-GB storage billing; per-GB egress $0.25 after the allowance. The task brief's '100 GB free' is wrong — it is 15 GB/month (100 GB is the Smash API trial, a different vendor). |
| Identity | institution (inferred, not read) not published |
| Egress | Metered after the free allowance: $0.25/GB pay-as-you-go, charged on egress ('when a file exits our network, either as a download to a machine or an upload to connected storage, we apply an egress fee per gigabyte'). |
| Per-object cap | not stated |
| Retention | request-rate/quota: 15 GB transfer per calendar month; retention: 5 days free storage per file, then per-GB storage billing; per-GB egress $0.25 after the allowance (5 days) |
| Interface | s3, rest rest (MASV API / desktop app / S3-adjacent cloud integrations) |
| Tooling | official MASV desktop app + API; cloud integrations push to S3/GCS/Azure |
| Composes with | 15 GB/month free credit x unlimited free accounts x a valid card each; the card pre-auth is the anti-multiplication gate. Even at 100 accounts that is 1.5 TB/month of transfer, not storage, and every byte over 15 GB bills at $0.25/GB. |
| Reliability | Files beyond the 5-day free storage window start accruing charges silently; the account auto-transitions to pay-as-you-go rather than stopping. |
