What counts as one unit

Every successful render is one unit: a PDF (/pdf/v1/html, /template, /url, /async) or a screenshot (/pdf/v1/screenshot). Failed renders and rejected requests (401/403/429) are not counted — you're only metered on success.

Which endpoints each plan can use

Endpoint	Free	Standard	Pro
POST /pdf/v1/html	✅	✅	✅
POST /pdf/v1/url	✅	✅	✅
POST /pdf/v1/screenshot	✅	✅	✅
POST /pdf/v1/async	✅	✅	✅
POST /pdf/v1/template (stored templates)	—	—	✅
GET /pdf/v1/templates	—	—	✅

Limits, explained

• Monthly quota — the PDFs/month for your plan. Exceed it → 429 until the next cycle (or upgrade).
• Rate limit — a per-minute request cap (separate from the monthly quota). Burst past it → 429 with a Retry-After header; slow down and retry.
