Use this article as a starting place to learn about the various limits on Superhuman Docs, depending on your pricing plan.
Depending on what pricing plan you’re subscribed to, you may have different limits that apply to your docs. From API limits, to doc size limits, to attachment limits - it can be hard to keep track of it all. This article aims to be a high-level breakdown of the various limits that apply to your docs, depending on your Superhuman Docs plan.
Page and object limits
-
Free plan:
Personal docs, or docs that aren’t shared with anyone, have no limits on the number of pages or objects
Shared docs (docs that are shared with anyone else) on the Free plan do have some limits to keep in mind. These docs can have up to 50 objects (pages, tables, views, buttons, formulas) and up to 1000 table rows per doc. Learn more here.
Pro, Team, & Enterprise plans: no page or object limits 🎉

Attachment limits
There are two file size limits to be aware of for attachments. Both limits are plan-dependent.
-
Per-doc file limits (the amount of total attachments in a doc):
Free plan: 1 GB per doc
Pro plan: 5 GB per doc
Team & Enterprise plans: Unlimited
-
Individual file size limit (the size limit for any single attachment you might add to a doc):
Free plan: 10 MB per attachment
Pro, Team, & Enterprise plans: 250 MB per attachment
Learn more about attachments in Docs here.
Version history limits
How far back you can go into your doc’s version history will depend on your plan type.
Free plan: 7 day history, doc level only
Pro plan: 30 day history, for pages and docs
Team & Enterprise plans: Unlimited history, for pages and docs
If you want to look further back into your doc history than your current plan allows, consider upgrading to a higher plan. This will automatically give you the ability to look further back into doc history, based on your new plan’s limits.
Automation limits
Different plans comes with different monthly automation quotas.
Free plan: 35 time-based and 100 event-based per month, per doc
Pro plan: 100 time-based and 500 event-based per month, per doc
Team & Enterprise plans: Unlimited automations per month, per doc
Note that event-based automations include “row changed,” “form submitted,” and “webhook invoked.”

Docs AI limits
While Docs AI is in beta, we have paused our previous credit system for AI. Every Doc Maker in a paid workspace has Docs AI included with generous limits. Limits are designed to prevent abuse and protect performance, not to restrict normal use. Editors and members of Free workspaces have access to a free trial of Docs AI, after which they will need to upgrade to a paid Doc Maker role if they wish to continue access.
Cross-doc & Pack sync table limits
There are two types of Pack sync table limits to be aware of. These limits are plan-dependent.
-
Sync table row limits (the maximum number of rows possible per sync table does vary between Superhuman Docs plans):
Free plan: max of 100 rows per sync table, including Cross-doc
Pro, Team, and Enterprise plans: max of 10,000 rows per Pack sync table, including Cross-doc
-
Pack refresh limits (the available options for refreshing Pack sync tables):
Free plan: Manual refresh only
Pro plan: Manual refresh & daily automatic refresh.
Team & Enterprise plans: Manual refresh, daily automatic refresh, & hourly automatic refresh.
Note: Once a doc exceeds 125 MB, adding new Cross-doc syncs from this doc into other docs is not supported. This limit applies to all plan types. Refer to the "Doc size limits for API" section below.
Learn more about Pack sync tables here.
Formula calculation limit
Regardless of which plan you're on, all docs are subject to a 325 MB formula calculation limit. If a doc exceeds this limit, all formulas and calculations will be temporarily disabled in order to protect performance. Buttons, automations, Cross-doc syncs, and other Pack sync tables will also be paused. Once the doc size is reduced below 325 MB, calculations and any other paused elements will automatically start working again. To learn more, check out this article.
API limits
Doc size limits for API
On all plan types, docs larger than 125 MB* may not be able to access the Superhuman Docs API. Once a doc exceeds this limit, the addition of new Cross-doc syncs from this source doc into other docs is no longer supported. Additionally, developer APIs will not be supported past this limit. You will see the following message in the Statistics panel of the doc:
This doc is over 125 MB. Developer API calls or use as a new Cross-doc sync source doc are not supported at this size.
Reduce the doc size to under 125 MB to ensure these features work. Start by reducing the size of your.
This limitation is set to preserve the performance of our API, and we have observed it to affect only a very small percentage of API users. Learn more about managing your doc size here.
*Note that 125 MB does not include file attachments.
API rate limits
API rate limits are not plan-dependent. The following limits apply to Free, Pro, Team, and Enterprise plans. Limits apply per-user across all endpoints that share the same limit and across all docs.
Reading data (with the exceptions below): 100 requests per 6 seconds
Writing data (POST/PUT/PATCH): 10 requests per 6 seconds
Writing doc content data (POST/PUT/PATCH): 3 requests per 10 seconds
Listing docs: 4 requests per 6 seconds
Reading analytics: 100 requests per 6 seconds

URL parameter limits
When using URL parameters in pre-filled forms or webhook-triggered automations, keep in mind Superhuman Docs' 2048 character limit on URL query parameters.
FAQs
What happens to my limits when I upgrade or downgrade my plan?
When upgrading, the new limits are effective immediately. For additional AI quota, customers can add more Doc Makers or purchase an AI credit package.
When a workspace is downgraded, any docs exceeding doc limits may have up to 14 days to downsize before they’ll become read only. Other paid features like Packs or hidden pages may be disabled. Content will not be deleted from these docs.
Is there any way to increase any of the limits beyond what my current plan allows?
For most of the limits explained in this article, upgrading to a higher plan is the only way to increase doc limits.
The one exception is Docs AI. While you can gain access to additional Docs AI credits by upgrading, you can instead opt to purchase an a la carte AI credit package (without upgrading).
All other limits cannot be increased ad hoc.
Are attachments included in the overall doc size?
No - attachment size is not included in the overall doc size. For example, the 125MB doc size limit for API access does not include attachment size.
