A while ago, I noticed some very small oscillations in my Cloudflare R2 bill (1-2 cents / month) and decided to ask about it out of curiosity. Support was tepid - understandable for my $1 / month account - and it wasn't until later that I realized the difference probably had to do with the number of days in the month.

Would this API have helped?

Translated: Close, but still not hard cost cap at Cloudflare.

Goes well with every other cloud provider refusing to offer a hard cost cap.

Unless of course you're on their credits then miraculously they do support a hard cap with every service stopping the second you go one cent over.

Vercel does. They don't get enough credit for it.

Zeit is good. Glory to Zeit.
