10 schedules and 10 concurrent Realtime connections on the Free plan. |
| Binding | volume-quota The monthly USD 5 credit runs out first for a sustained workload: past it, tasks stop until the next month or an upgrade. |
| Identity | email No credit card required; the login page offers GitHub, Google, SSO or email. |
| Egress | not stated: the pricing page charges compute seconds and runs and names no charge on traffic out of a task |
| Per-object cap | 3MB per single trigger payload |
| Retention | 1 day of logs on the Free plan; a queued run expires after the 14-day maximum TTL (1 days) |
| Interface | rest, cli The management API at api.trigger.dev takes an environment API key or a personal access token as a Bearer token, and the @trigger.dev/sdk package wraps it; the CLI runs tasks locally with hot reloading |
| Tooling | the @trigger.dev/sdk package, the CLI and the web dashboard |
| Composes with | A hosted runner for TypeScript tasks with no maximum run duration, so a long crawl or a chain of model calls runs off any free host until USD 5 of compute is spent. |
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded; once the monthly credit is spent, tasks stop running until the next month or an upgrade |
| Notes | The same offer is also recorded as compute/trigger-dev. At USD 0.0000338 a second for the Small 1x machine (0.5 vCPU, 0.5 GB), USD 5 buys about 147,929 seconds, or 41 hours, a month before invocation charges. |
