| Price | none stated |
| Limits |
not stated |
| Binding | retention-clamped sleep is the first thing that matters and the vendor does not publish the timeout, so the row cannot be planned against. |
| Identity | email 'No credit card required — just sign up and start deploying' |
| Egress | the current plan pages state no egress allowance; the network traffic changelog states US$1 / 10GB beyond a free quota of 100GB (developers and teams) or 10GB (serverless plan users), which may be superseded free allowance: 100 GB (developers and teams) or 10 GB (serverless plan users), per the network traffic changelog; not stated on the current plan pages price per tb: USD 100 per TB |
| Per-object cap | a single file upload is capped at 50 MB on Free; 48 hours of log retention; build machine 2C4G |
| Retention | 48 hours of logs on Free; no statement about service data |
| Interface | cli Zeabur CLI (npx zeabur, token login for CI), GitHub deploys and the dashboard; the plan comparison lists API Keys as a quota but no API reference was read |
| Reliability | the sleep interval is unpublished, so 'a period of inactivity' cannot be sized; the vendor also states the Free Plan carries no SLA |
| Notes | The Free Plan does deploy serverless services, without a card, and they sleep. The old USD 5 monthly credit is gone. What is not established is whether the Free Plan has any compute allowance at all or is metered against a card-free quota, and the sleep interval. |
| Evidence note | documented the Free Plan page was read and states the auto-sleep and the no-card rule; the sleep duration and any compute allowance are not published on it |

| Binding | volume-quota Transport fails first: cloud services offer HTTP or TCP only, and the Free Plan auto-sleeps idle services, which ends a tunnel. |
| Identity | email "No credit card required - just sign up and start deploying." |
| Egress | The Free Plan documentation states no monthly byte allowance; it lists only auto-sleep, no SLA, no Zeabur Email, and no backup or log forwarding.; ingress: tcp free allowance: none published |
| Interface | cli, rest Dashboard and CLI; ports declared per service with a type of HTTP or TCP. |
| Tooling | Dashboard, CLI, and templates; port type chosen per service port. |
| Composes with | Zeabur on a self-managed server could open UDP through that server's firewall; the free cloud tier cannot. |
| Reliability | Free Plan services auto-sleep when idle and wake on the next request; a sleeping service cannot hold a tunnel. Forwarded host and port may change. |
| Notes | The UDP evidence in Zeabur's own templates is tied to dedicated-server projects, i.e. a server a user rents elsewhere and attaches. That is not a free platform port. Ports are also documented as possibly changing. |
| Evidence note | documented Whether the Free Plan may attach a TCP port at all is not stated; the plan page limits itself to sleep, SLA and feature exclusions. |
