Storage limits and what counts against them

What uses your storage, what's exempt, per-plan video rules, and how to free space when you hit the ceiling.

Updated Aug 27, 2026

Every file you upload — photos, videos, audio, documents — lives in your Vault and counts against your plan's storage. Here's exactly how the meter works.

Storage by plan#

PlanStorage
Free1GB
Opener25GB
Direct Support100GB
Headliner250GB

What counts#

  • Everything you upload to Vault, including what your website uses: gallery photos, hero images, release artwork, audio files, and documents.
  • Videos — which also have their own per-plan rules:

Free1 video250MB
OpenerUnlimited1GB
Direct SupportUnlimited2GB
HeadlinerUnlimited5GB

What doesn't count#

  • Generated press kits — press kit files are fully exempt from storage.
  • Imported release data — streaming links and metadata from auto-import aren't uploads of yours.
  • Embedded video — a hero that embeds a YouTube or streaming URL costs no storage; only uploaded video files do.

When you hit the limit#

Uploads are checked against your remaining space before they start, so you can't accidentally overshoot — a file that doesn't fit is refused with a clear message. To make room:

  • Delete files you no longer need in Vault — deleted files free their space.
  • Replace oversized images with web-sized versions; a 500KB photo and a 12MB photo look identical on a phone.
  • Or upgrade your plan for a bigger ceiling.
