Free tier	5 GB storage on Free (unlimited on Twist Unlimited); 100 MB per attachment unit GB; metered on stored-bytes
Price	none stated
Per-object cap	not stated
Retention	not stated
Egress	Free; files served from Twist's own storage
Identity	email derived from the record's prose, not from an identity field, and no signup was executed: for 500 GB. 5 GB per team; 100 MB per attachment; 10 MB for emailed attachments; thread history older than one month is not viewable on Free (data retained server-side, not deleted) mes
Binding	none no constraint of a named kind was recorded; the verdict rests on the quota sentence rather than on a named limit
Interface	rest, rclone rest
Tooling	Twist has an API but no documented bulk file-upload surface and no rclone backend; wrapper-only
Composes with	5 GB x N free teams. Twist free teams are unlimited in number from one account ('create a separate, free team'), so it chains - but 5 GB/team means ~100 teams for 500 GB.
Reliability	Distinctive upside: Twist explicitly never deletes data on the Free plan - the one-month limit is visibility only. That makes it a rare non-hostile free tier, just a small one.
Notes	5 GB storage on Free (unlimited on Twist Unlimited); 100 MB per attachment
Evidence rung	reported One page read moves it to documented.

Limits	per-object-cap 5 GB cap source 5 GB/team; 100 MB/attachment; 10 MB for emailed attachments; free-plan thread history older than one month is not viewable (though Twist explicitly retains it server-side and never deletes).
Binding	per-object-cap the per-object cap sets the shard size and therefore the object count; it bounds the total more tightly than any headline quota
Interface	rest rest
Tooling	Twist REST API (api.twist.com/api/v3) with attachment upload by `file_id`; OAuth2 app registration. Weaker client ecosystem than Slack.
Composes with	Unlimited free teams per account ('create a separate, free team'), so N teams x 5 GB is trivially repeatable — but each team needs its own members/invites.
Reliability	No deletion stated ('nothing will ever be deleted'), which is unusual and good. The 5 GB cap is the wall.
