Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is SnipVault completely free?

A: SnipVault is an open-source tool developed as a labor of love by Rosy. It is architected using ultra-modern, serverless edge structures (like Convex Cloud). Because Convex provides very generous serverless quotas and database footprints, our runtime operating costs are virtually zero. Instead of trying to squeeze a profit, we pass these zero-cost infrastructure savings directly to you.

Q: Will you introduce paid features later?

A: No. We promise that the entirety of SnipVault's core features — snippet hosting, custom categories, database sync, GDPR downloads, and session logs — will remain 100% free forever. There is no hidden subscription, ad-network, or upgrade lock waiting for you down the line.

Q: If I store massive amounts of snippets, will I get throttled?

A: Standard developer use (thousands of text snippets) takes up only a few megabytes of database space, which easily fits within our platform infrastructure guidelines. Unless you are deliberately writing scripts to spam the system with millions of garbage inputs, your snippets will never be throttled.
