Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account for the free tier?
A free account gets you 10K hosted entries, 1 GB storage, and 5,000 requests/day. Or run npx context-vault for a fully local vault with no account at all.
What happens when I hit my entry limit?
You see a dashboard nudge, not a hard block. On Pro, overage is billed at $0.001/entry/month (about $1 for every 1,000 extra entries). We never silently delete entries.
Can I use Pro and keep local-only for sensitive projects?
Yes. The local vault and hosted vault are separate systems. You choose per-session which to use. Private projects stay local, shared or multi-device work goes to hosted.
Is SSO really included on the Team plan?
Yes. We use better-auth (MIT-licensed, self-hosted) for all auth. SSO costs us nothing to operate, so we pass that through to you. No enterprise gating.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from the billing dashboard at any time. Your hosted vault entries are yours — export them before cancelling if you want local copies.
