Limits
Most nodes cost 1 credit for the first 3 seconds, then 1 per additional second; certain control and utility nodes are exempt. Keyless AI is model/token-metered; using your own API keys incurs external provider charges. Included credits expire monthly, purchased top-up credits do not. Executions stop without credits; auto-top-up is optional. Pricing lists a 7-day trial but does not clearly confirm a permanent Free allowance. Regional deployment does not guarantee that connected API data stays in that region. The privacy policy explicitly excludes model training only for Google Workspace API data, not all data. Retention follows account, service and legal requirements. Enterprise advertises HIPAA while the terms prohibit regulated HIPAA use: obtain written clarification before such use.
