Each successful job costs a fixed number of credits, shown next to every endpoint: 1 for page operations like merge, 2 for conversions and compression, 3 for OCR. Failed jobs are free.

What happens when I run out of credits?

On the Free plan, requests return 402 until the next month. Paid plans keep working and the extra credits are billed at your plan's overage rate at the end of the billing period.

How long do you keep my files?

Uploads are deleted as soon as the job has run, and results are deleted after one hour. Download links expire after 15 minutes; request the job again to get a fresh link.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. Manage or cancel your subscription from the billing portal in the dashboard. You keep your plan until the end of the period you paid for.
