Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the pricing really this straightforward?
-
Yes! We’re proud of having no hidden fees. Here’s what you can count on:
- No snapshot fees. No snapshot storage, read, or write charges on compute.
- No per-request storage charges. Object storage operations aren’t metered.
- No seat limits. List rates are public — until 500+ TB egress.
- Per-second billing. Simple metering; you pay only while running.
- Is Datum really free right now?
-
Yes. During public beta you get access to the full platform at no cost. Credit card required on sign up to help prevent fraudulent activity.
- Will I be charged automatically when beta ends?
-
No. We commit to notifying you well in advance and giving you a grace period to review rates and decide before any billing begins. You won’t receive an unexpected bill.
- Do you charge for support or seats?
-
There is no per-seat or per-user licensing. Pricing is usage-based only — invite your whole team.
- What if I go over the free data transfer tier?
-
Egress past the first 200 GB/month is billed at the tiered rates in the Data Transfer tables above, and rates drop automatically as volume grows.
