File Upload Limits on Grain’s Free Plan

Learn about user restrictions when it comes to uploading files to Grain.

Updated this week

Grain offers powerful tools for recording, highlighting, and sharing meeting insights. On the free plan, certain limitations apply to ensure fair usage and maintain service quality. One key limitation is the number of files that can be uploaded.


File Upload Limits by Plan

Free Plan:

  • No Uploads: Uploads are not supported on the Free plan.

Starter Plan:

  • Monthly Upload Limit: 10 uploads per month.

Business and Enterprise Plans:

  • Unlimited Uploads: No upload restrictions.


Meeting Recording Limits

  • Users on the free plan can still record unlimited meetings.

  • However, users on the free plan who don’t have a company domain (e.g., using Gmail) can only record up to 20 meetings for free directly via Grain’s bot integration (e.g., Zoom, Google Meet, etc.).


Why This Limit Exists

The upload limit helps Grain continue offering a robust free tier while encouraging users to upgrade for more extensive needs. If you find yourself needing to upload, upgrading to a paid plan will unlock:

  • Uploads including unlimited upload limits.

  • Access to advanced features.


What to Do If You Hit the Upload Limit

If you’ve reached the upload limit and still need to upload additional files:

  1. Upgrade to a Paid Plan:

    • Consider upgrading your plan to increase upload limits.

    • Visit the Grain Pricing Page to explore plan options.

  2. Record Meetings Directly:

    • Use Grain’s bot to record meetings directly instead of uploading files. This method does not count toward the upload limit.

    • Learn more about meeting recordings in our Help Center.


Common Questions

Q: How do I record meetings without uploading files?

A: Use Grain’s bot integration to join and record meetings on platforms like Zoom, Google Meet or Teams. This feature is included in the free plan.
