What are "units"?
A Unit is a block of browser time of up to 30s. This typically means a unit is used per page, but longer running automations may use more than one. Units are also how we charge for our proxies, at a rate of 6 units per MB of traffic.
Still have questions?
Absolutely! If you still have open questions, feel free to reach out to support@browserless.io and we will be happy to answer any questions for you.
Unit-based plans allow users to subscribe to a plan that covers the number of Units they intend to use in a month. Unit-based plans run on a shared fleet in San Francisco, California and London, England. You can see more about the shared fleet here.
A Unit is any time a browser is started with our API/library and is used for up to 30 seconds. A new Unit is charged every 30 seconds of a running Session. All Sessions are cut off after 15-minutes to avoid charges for errors.
If you happen to go over your subscription amount, then overage fees are charged per Unit at the specified overage rate for any paid plans. Free plans will actively reject incoming requests after the threshold is met. Any overage fees are billed whenever overages reach the dollar amount of the subscription the customer is on, when changing plans, or at the end of the month if the billing threshold is not reached.
For billing clarity, your invoice will have separate line items for the subscription and any overages. We will send you an email notice anytime you start accumulating overage charges, which happens at most once an hour.
When you sign-up for an account a valid payment method is required. If you decide to cancel within the 7 days, this payment method will be removed and you won't be charged. After 7 days, the trial will expire and you will be automatically charged for the ongoing subscription. You can cancel self-service plans at any time from the Account section in the account portal.
Yes! Once you change plans we reset your billing cycle to the time of the change and charge for the full amount of the plan you're moving to. Any overages are also charged at that time. Feel free to see what the cost is on your account page.
Dedicated plans run only your traffic on your machines only, adding in a layer of security via network isolation. We also have several locations available for Dedicated plans, including London, New York, Amsterdam and San Francisco, making many types of compliances easier to obtain. Finally, all of the browseless APIs are available on Dedicated.
Self-hosting Browserless is a license to host the service in your own cloud or on-prem. The Standard and Premium versions of Browserless are both available as self-hosted options. This can be a great option for data-sensitive organizations needing to comply with local laws and other standards.
