Hello Vercel Team,
I recently created a small private web application using Next.js, and I would like to clarify whether my intended use is permitted under the free Hobby plan.
Here is how I plan to use it:
The application is a personal pricing and cost calculator.
I use it to calculate product costs, shipping expenses, payment fees, potential losses, and expected profit margins for products sold through my own cross-border e-commerce business.
It is strictly an internal tool for my own use.
It is not a SaaS product and will not be offered to customers or third parties.
It does not process payments, display advertisements, promote products, or generate revenue directly.
Access will be restricted to my own Vercel account using Deployment Protection.
I built the application myself and do not provide paid development or hosting services to anyone.
I understand that the Hobby plan is restricted to personal and non-commercial use.
My question is:
Would hosting this private, internal-only pricing calculator for my own business operations be considered commercial usage under Vercel's Fair Use Guidelines?
If this use case requires a Pro subscription, I would appreciate your confirmation before proceeding with deployment.
Thank you for your clarification!
