- identity: anonymous | detail: anonymous
- interface: unknown
- limits:
  - per-ip-shaping (binding): 20 Mbps [1]
- limits note: Per-relay bandwidth set by the operator; sessions per client and per relay are limited. Relays can vanish without notice.
- interface detail: relay:// protocol on 22067; the pool is a JSON endpoint.
- tooling: strelaysrv; Syncthing's own relay selection.
- composes with: Relay is only used until a direct connection is established; Syncthing then switches to direct and the relay carries nothing.
- reliability: The pool endpoint returns dozens of `relay://IP:22067` entries with self-signed device IDs. No accounting means no sustainability, but also no gate.
- notes: the same as the free tier
- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-21: literal JSON list of relay:// URLs with IDs
  - [2] 2026-10-21: 'Anyone can run a relay server, and it will automatically join the relay pool'
  - [3] 2026-10-21: traffic is bounced via a relay only when a direct connection is impossible
  - [4] 2026-10-21: 'The relays listed on this page are not managed or vetted by the Syncthing project'
