About
Pinata is a file storage platform that provides IPFS uploads, file management, private IPFS storage, gateways, access control, analytics, workspaces, groups, and related developer tooling. It also includes an agents product for deploying and managing OpenClaw agents, but the core service on the pricing page is autonomous file storage and IPFS infrastructure.
The free plan includes 0 agents, 1GB storage, 1 gateway, 500 pinned files total, 10GB bandwidth per month, and 10K requests per month. The pricing page also shows paid Picnic and Fiesta plans with larger storage, bandwidth, and request limits, plus enterprise options for custom needs.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is a genuinely usable starter package: it includes 1GB of storage, 10GB of bandwidth, 10K requests, and one gateway, but it stays capped on capacity and excludes the paid-plan jump to larger storage, more agents, and higher request limits. Compared with the $20 Picnic plan, it delivers roughly a fifth of the entry plan’s value, so about $4/month is a fair estimate; a credit card is not called out as required, and the offer is perpetual but clearly limited.
