Unstructured halves its per-page rate to $0.015 and drops the $3,000/mo bill cap
Unstructured cut its Pay-As-You-Go rate from $0.03 to $0.015 per page and reverted the 15,000-page monthly free allowance to a one-time 10,000-page signup allowance, removing the $3,000/mo bill cap it had added just six weeks earlier.
$0.03/page flat rate; 15,000 free pages every month (recurring, resets monthly); Pay-As-You-Go bill capped at $3,000/mo, then free up to 1M pages/mo (captured 2026-07-14)
$0.015/page flat rate; 10,000 free pages to start (one-time signup allowance); no stated monthly bill cap (captured 2026-08-28)

Unstructured reversed two of the mechanics it had only just introduced. The per-page Pay-As-You-Go rate fell from $0.03 to $0.015/page — a 50% cut — still applied flat across every file type and processing pipeline (Fast, Hi-Res, VLM, Auto). At the same time, the free tier reverted from “15,000 free pages every month, resetting monthly” back to a one-time 10,000 free pages to start, and the pricing page no longer mentions the $3,000/month bill cap (with pages free above it up to 1 million pages/mo) that Unstructured had added on 2026-07-14. The Business tier’s custom-quoted deployment options (dedicated instance, in-VPC, multi-tenant SaaS, bare-metal) are unchanged.
Net effect: high-volume pipelines lose the effective $3,000/mo ceiling but gain a rate cut that is often cheaper below the old cap threshold — a 1M-page month now costs $15,000 at the flat rate versus a capped $3,000 previously, while a 100,000-page month falls from $3,000 to $1,500.
Free tier became 15,000 free pages every month (resetting monthly) instead of a one-time allowance. Pay-As-You-Go added a $3,000/mo bill cap — once the monthly bill hits $3,000, every additional page is free up to 1 million pages a month. Flat $0.03/page rate below the cap unchanged; Business now also lists Multi-Tenant SaaS deployment.
