Limits for every plan
Compare the daily allowance, quota identity and technical session boundaries for Free, Pro and Pro Max.
Paid plans increase daily operations and attach the balance to an account. PDF size, page count, concurrent processing, temporary storage and retention are currently the same for every plan.

How the daily limit is calculated
Every plan resets at 00:00 UTC. A regular PDF task consumes one operation; OCR consumes one operation for every selected page. A repeated request with the same idempotency key is not charged twice.
What happens during overload
The operator is warned first. Heavy operations such as OCR, conversion and security tools may then be paused temporarily. New uploads stop when the queue is full. Cancellation, deletion, cleanup and downloading completed results remain available.
Billing and subscriptions
Free includes 5 operations per day. Pro includes 20 and Pro Max includes 100. OCR uses one operation per selected page. Payments are processed by Lava.top; PDFnik does not store card details. For billing questions, contact support.
