Container Sizes
Overage rate: $0.0002 per CUS for paid plans.
Example workloads
Turn quotas into a monthly estimate
These simplified examples use monthly Starter pricing and the published container rate. Your actual usage depends on run count, storage, container size, and execution time.
SaaS automation
50K ordinary runs
Webhooks, event handlers, schedules, and API functions with no container work fit within Starter’s 100K included runs.
$25 monthly plan
Subject to the other Starter limits.
Browser automation
100 medium minutes
A medium container uses 120 CUS per minute. One hundred minutes uses 12,000 CUS, inside Starter’s 50,000 included CUS.
100 × 120 = 12,000 CUS
$25 monthly plan
Media processing
250 large minutes
A large container uses 240 CUS per minute. This workload uses 60,000 CUS: 50,000 included plus 10,000 paid overage.
10,000 × $0.0002 = $2
About $27 total on Starter
Examples exclude annual discounts, third-party API charges, and usage outside the described quotas.
