    Cron job can receive up to 100 MB of response data per execution.

  • Free plan expires monthly

    The free plan expires every month and must be renewed to keep cron jobs running.

    Retaining failure logs is a paid-plan feature; not available on the free plan.

  • No custom HTTP configuration

    Customizing HTTP method/headers/body for requests is restricted to paid plans.
