The limitation that matters
Consumer limits and commercial output permissions are not stated. An email, Google, or Apple login is required for synced app use.
The official app announcement confirms free access but does not state message, file, reasoning, or web-search quotas. API access is a separate paid product.
Plan details can change. A source check confirms published information; it is not a hands-on quality review or a guarantee that the plan fits every project.
