# Limits

We’d love for you to have *unlimited* joy building on Convex but engineering practicalities dictate a few limits. This page outlines current limits in the Convex ecosystem.

Many of these limits will become more permissive over time. Please get in touch if any are prohibitive for your application.

Limits are applied per team unless stated otherwise.

If any of these limits don't work for you, [let us know](https://convex.dev/community)!

Please see our [plans and pricing page](https://www.convex.dev/pricing) for resource limits. After these limits are hit on a free plan, new mutations that attempt to commit more insertions or updates may fail. Paid plans have no hard resource limits - they can scale to billions of documents and TBs of storage.
