- What is a field-level encryption API?
- You send a private string. You get one encrypted value. Store it in the same column. Keys stay with us.
- Do decrypts count toward my plan?
- No. Only encrypt operations are billed. Decrypt, update, and delete are free.
- Is there a free plan?
- Yes. 10,000 encrypts and 1,000 strings, demo keys only, card required before membership.
- What happens to encrypts I do not use?
- Never lose what you pay for. Unused included encrypts move to an account bank, including on Free — up to two months of the included amount (20,000). Extra encrypts on a paid plan come from the bank before overage. Free cannot spend the bank to pass its hard cap. After you upgrade, the bank is there to use. The bank does not expire while the account is open. If you cancel, encrypted values and the unused-encrypt bank stay for 90 days unless you choose to delete them immediately.
- Can I get an alert when one API key is used too much?
- Yes. Set a number on any named key for encrypts this month, for active strings that key holds, or both. When a number is passed, the dashboard records an alert.
- What is 30, 90, or 365 day history?
- How far back the usage dashboard keeps daily encrypt and decrypt counts, split by named API key. Free keeps 30 days, Launch and Growth keep 90, Business and Capacity keep 365. It is not a copy of the envelopes you store.
- Can I encrypt a whole object as one string?
- Yes. Encrypt a JSON object or JWT as one plaintext so one encrypt covers many fields.
