Free Tier Value
This free tier is a small but real starter offering: no credit card is required, and it includes 20 MB of storage plus up to 2 indices. The cheapest paid plan is Micro at $9/month for 1 GB and 3 indices, so the free tier is roughly a tiny slice of that capability and is worth about $2/month.
What's included in the free tier
- 20 MB storage limit.
- Up to 2 indices.
