Plans and limits
Free, Garden and Forest — what each one costs and every limit sizuq actually enforces.
The three plans
The plans decide what you can tend, not how far your writing travels. Nothing is boosted, throttled or ranked by plan, and a reader cannot tell which one you are on.
| Free | Garden | Forest | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly | Nothing | ¥980 | ¥2,980 |
| Yearly | Nothing | ¥9,800 | ¥29,800 |
Paying yearly costs the same as ten months. Prices include Japanese consumption tax, and a subscription can be cancelled at any time from Settings → Billing.

How often you can publish
There is a ceiling on how many drops can be shared in a rolling hour and a rolling day. It exists to stop an unattended script, and it is set well above what a person writing carefully will ever reach. Saving drafts is not limited at all — only the moment of sharing counts.
| Free | Garden | Forest | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Per hour | 5 | 30 | 120 |
| Per day | 20 | 150 | 600 |
Storage
Two different limits apply to pictures, and they surface the same way, so it is worth knowing which one you have hit.
- The largest single upload is a per-file ceiling. A file over it is refused however much room you have left.
- Image storage is the running total of everything you have uploaded — pictures inside drops, cover images, garden logos and social cards.
Removing a picture from a drop gives the room back. sizuq counts down as well as up, so deleting a draft full of images returns that space.
When you change plan
Moving up takes effect as soon as the payment goes through. Moving down leaves everything you have already made in place — sizuq does not delete gardens or drops to fit you back inside a smaller plan. What changes is what you can add next.
- Gardens over the new limit stay published; you cannot create another until you are back under it.
- A custom domain stays attached, but on Free you cannot attach a new one.
- Stored images over the new limit stay where they are; new uploads are refused until you are under the cap again.
- On Free, the body of an already-shared drop becomes read-only. Its title, tags and address stay editable.
