Rate Limits
The current usage limits for uploads, downloads, generation, and library actions.
Updated 2026-05-13
Why limits exist
Some actions do real work: uploading files, saving library items, downloading media, or generating new images and videos. Limits keep those actions reliable for everyone.
These are not pricing tiers. They are current safety limits while ClipStitchr is still shaping plan details.
What happens when a limit is reached
If you hit a limit, ClipStitchr stops the action before starting the work. Wait for the retry time, then run the action again.
Local browser work
Some work happens in your browser and does not need a separate limit. For example, Swipr can render your saved carousel into image slides locally.
Clipr and Stitchr music export also renders locally when you download a video with music enabled. Generating or regenerating the music still uses the limits below.
Longr rendering happens locally in your browser, but saving the finished Long still uses upload and library-save limits.
Saving, uploading, downloading, or generating content still uses the limits below because those actions use shared app resources.
