* At 500k our yearly price is under ten months' price for the first 50 customers, and stays yours at every renewal while you stay on 500k yearly. Vercel counts each page view and each custom event as one event, shared across every project in a Vercel team; the Hobby plan stops collecting at its limit and cannot buy more1. Its Pro prices are usage at $0.03 per 1,000 events, so the monthly figures here are that rate times the size1. Our counts are pageviews and custom events, across all your sites. Prices are in US dollars as each tool lists them; where its sizes differ from ours, the closest plan that covers the size is shown.
