Why $0.01 per GB per day?

This is $3.65 per GB per year — reflecting our agent-first architecture, infrastructure costs, and commitment to long-term reliability on decentralised storage.

USDC is a stablecoin worth $1 USD, deployed on Base (an Ethereum layer 2). All prices are calculated and paid in USDC base units (6 decimal places).

Can I query pricing from the API?

Yes. Agents can call GET /api/pricing to retrieve the current pricing manifest before deploying.

Free Tier

1-day pins are free up to 100 MB total (lifetime) — link your GitHub account once to unlock.

GitHub acts as identity verification: one GitHub account = one 100 MB lifetime quota, shared across all your wallets. Your token is used once to confirm your identity and immediately discarded — we never store it.

How to activate (takes 30 seconds):

Ask the agent: "connect my GitHub for the free tier"
A browser tab opens — create a token with the read:user scope
Paste the token back — free tier activates immediately
