| Free tier | Open-Source Sponsorship Plan, granted on application: 5M errors, 5,000GB logs, 5,000GB application metrics, 1B spans, 100K replays, 500 cron monitors, 25 uptime monitors, 3K continuous profile hours, 150 UI profile hours, 10GB of attachments and 1000 size analysis uploads per month, Seer for 5 active contributors, Business features and no term limit unit mixed; metered on request-count; Counted per event category: errors, spans and replays are event counts; logs, application metrics and attachments are GB; all per month. A pay-as-you-go budget can be added for volume past the plan. |

| Limits |
500 cron monitors, 25 uptime monitors, 3K continuous profile hours, 150 UI profile hours and 1000 size analysis uploads per month, Seer for 5 active contributors, Business features and no term limit. |
| Binding | request-rate 5M errors per month is the first ceiling for an application that reports every exception; a pay-as-you-go budget can be added for more. |
| Identity | email A Sentry organization comes first: the sign-up form asks for name, organization, email and password behind a reCAPTCHA, or Google, GitHub or Azure DevOps sign-in, with no card field. The sponsorship application asks for name, email, website URL, company type, the Sentry organization name and URL, the project URL, a GitHub URL that links to the licence and a description; support reviews it and names the documentation it requires. |
| Egress | not stated |
| Per-object cap | unverified: the sponsorship plan pages name no per-event size limit |
| Retention | unverified: the sponsorship plan pages name no retention period |
| Interface | rest, cli The Sentry web API gives programmatic access to the platform; its scope on the sponsorship plan is not stated on the plan pages |
| Tooling | the Sentry SDKs and the Sentry web API |
| Composes with | Cron monitors plus a 1B-span budget is the part a rented GPU job needs and a free tier rarely gives: a stalled training run on somebody else's hardware is otherwise invisible until the bill arrives. |
| Reliability | events and attachments past the quota are not accepted unless a pay-as-you-go budget is added |
| Notes | Kept apart from dev-services/sentry, which records the free Developer plan: the sponsorship plan is granted on application and review to an open source project, with 5M errors and 1B spans per month against 5k errors and 5M spans on the Developer plan, so the two are different plans with different limits. The unit is events, spans and GB of logs, not machine time. |

One user, 1 uptime monitor, 1 cron monitor and 10 custom dashboards on the Developer plan. |
| Binding | request-rate 5k errors is the first category to run out for an application that reports every exception; past it, error events are not accepted until the quota resets. |
| Identity | email The sign-up form asks for name, organization, email and password behind a reCAPTCHA, or sign-in with Google, GitHub or Azure DevOps; the form has no card field. A new account gets 14 days of unlimited volume and then moves to the free plan, with no forced upgrade. |

500 cron monitors, 25 uptime monitors, 3K continuous profile hours, 150 UI profile hours and 1000 size analysis uploads per month, 5 Seer active contributor seats and Business features, which the plan page does not enumerate. A legacy sponsored plan, assigned before the current feature set, does not show the Business features until support migrates it to the latest plan on request. |
| Binding | write-gated A support review at Sentry's discretion comes before any quota applies; once granted, 5M errors a month is the first volume ceiling, and new events are refused past it until the next usage period unless a pay-as-you-go budget is added. |
| Identity | email A Sentry organization comes first: the sign-up form asks for name, organization, email and password behind a reCAPTCHA. The sponsorship application names that organization and asks for website URL, company type, project URL, a GitHub link to the licence where available and a description; support reviews it and names the documentation it requires (unverified: behind a sign-up and an application). The sign-up form and the application have no card field; pay-as-you-go spend past the quota is enabled by adding a credit card to the account. |

| Free tier | Education sponsorship, free for 1 year, for students who hold a GitHub Student Developer Pack and for teachers who use Sentry in class: 50K errors, 5GB logs, 5GB application metrics, 5M spans, 500 replays, 1 cron monitor, 1 uptime monitor, 750 continuous profile hours, 1 UI profile hour, 1GB of attachments, 100 size analysis uploads per month and 1 Seer active contributor seat, with unlimited projects and members unit mixed; metered on request-count; Counted per event category: errors, spans and replays are event counts, logs, application metrics and attachments are GB, and each quota is stated per month. The Sentry for Education page lists 50K errors, 5GB logs, 5M spans, 500 replays, 1 cron monitor, 1GB attachments and USD 20 of Seer credits a month. The Sentry for Good page lists 1 Seer active contributor seat instead. A Pay-As-You-Go budget for volume past the quotas needs a credit card on the account. |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits |
1 cron monitor, 1 uptime monitor, 750 continuous profile hours, 1 UI profile hour, 100 size analysis uploads per month and 1 Seer active contributor seat. The Team plan changes that a help article applies to the education plan add 20 custom dashboards and a maximum of 20 metric monitors. The plan lasts 1 year from its start date and is not renewed: the organization then moves to the free Developer plan. One user activates one education plan, and a sponsorship covers one organization. |
| Binding | write-gated The plan activates only for a GitHub account that holds the Student Developer Pack, which GitHub grants on proof of current student status, so the monthly quotas bind only after that gate. |
| Identity | institution Students need a Sentry account with at least one organization, a linked GitHub account and an active GitHub Student Developer Pack. The Sentry sign-up form asks for name, organization, email and password behind a reCAPTCHA and has no card field. The activation page asks a user to sign in, associate GitHub and activate, and names no card step. GitHub grants the pack to a user enrolled in a degree or diploma program, such as a high school, college, university or homeschool, who shows a school ID with an enrollment date, a class schedule, a transcript or an enrollment verification letter, and who verifies an academic email address where the school requires one. Teachers apply for a sponsored account. Sentry support reviews the application and names the documents required, for example a screenshot of a GitHub Education account that shows active Faculty or Teacher benefits. GitHub states that teachers are not eligible for the pack, and its teacher application asks for a school-issued email address and documents that prove school affiliation. One user can activate one education plan. |
| Egress | not stated: the plan pages list ingested volumes and name no charge for reading data back |
| Per-object cap | Spans are limited to 20KB, a Team plan change that a help article applies to the education sponsored plan |
| Retention | 30 days for spans, logs and profiles: a help article applies the changes listed for Team plans to the education sponsored plan, and that list includes 30 day retention of spans, logs and profiles. The retention of errors and the other data types on the education plan is unverified: the retention table has no education column, and its Team column gives errors 90 days. (30 days) |

| Composes with | An error and tracing sink for jobs on free compute, with 50K errors and 5M spans a month for 1 year, reachable only with a GitHub Student Developer Pack or a teacher application; without one, the free Developer plan (dev-services/sentry) is the hosted fallback. |
| Reliability | events past the quota are not accepted until the next usage period unless a Pay-As-You-Go budget is added; the plan ends after 1 year and the organization moves to the free Developer plan |
| Notes | Two routes lead to the same quotas. A student activates the plan at sentry.io/for/education/ with a GitHub Student Developer Pack. A teacher applies for a sponsored account that Sentry support reviews. A help article applies the changes listed for Team plans to the education plan, so the plan carries Team features. The free Developer plan is dev-services/sentry. The open source and non-profit sponsorship plan is compute/sentry. The pack listing at education.github.com/pack words the offer as 50K errors, 100K transactions, 1GB attachments, 500 replays, Team features, a 1 year limit that can renew and on-demand disabled. The Sentry help articles say the plan is not renewed and that a credit card enables Pay-As-You-Go. |
| Evidence note | documented The quotas, the term and the eligibility steps come from first-party Sentry pages and help articles. The span size limit and the 30 day retention of spans, logs and profiles follow from two sentences of one help article, which applies the Team plan changes to the education plan. The retention of errors, the plan name shown in the app and web API access need an activated organization and are unverified. |
