Docs The service Plans & quotas

Plans & quotas

Limits are per tenant. Usage against them is on the Account → Plan & usage screen in the app and at GET /v1/tenants/{tid}/plan.

Pingtower is free during preview, with no credit card. Every new account starts on the Free tier, and its limits are the numbers the server enforces.

Limit	Free	Pro
Projects per tenant	5	100
Alerts retained	1,000	50,000
Log rows retained	50,000	2,000,000
Ingest rate	20 events/s, burst 40	200 events/s, burst 400
API rate	10 req/s, burst 20	100 req/s, burst 200

Pro and Enterprise exist today and are granted by email; there is no checkout. Enterprise is custom limits set to fit your stream. The pricing page says how paid plans will arrive when they do.

What a cap does

A quota can cost you history, never an alertPast the log cap the tower stops retaining rows, but every event is still evaluated and alerting continues. Past a rate you get 429 with a Retry-After header, and the addons agent spools and retries on its own.

Self-hosted tenants

A tenant whose data plane is your own box has no plan. Your box enforces whatever limits you configure with its flags, and pingtower.com meters nothing about it. The app’s Plan & usage screen says so instead of rendering a ceiling nobody enforces.
