What does 'unique image request' mean?
A unique image request counts each distinct image transformation, regardless of how many users request it. For example, serving five different versions of an image counts as five unique requests, even if downloaded 1,000 times.
What happens if I exceed my plan limits?
If your usage exceeds your plan, additional unique image requests and bandwidth are billed at the specified overage rates on your next invoice. Your account will not be terminated or put on hold.
Does LibPixel support on-the-fly image format conversion?
Yes, LibPixel enables real-time conversion between image formats, such as converting images to WebP, using its API.
Can LibPixel be set up for private, non-public deployments?
