Netlify slashes free analytics retention from 7 days to 1 day
What happened
Between the Dec 29, 2025 and Mar 30, 2026 captures of Netlify's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Personal plan observability reduced: '7-day analytics & metrics' replaced with '1-day observability', cutting the retention window from 7 days to 1 day. Pulse files it as a packaging change (limit decrease) with a downward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 3, 2026) lists Concurrent Builds Add-on at $40, Preview Servers Add-on at $15, Add-on Credits (Pro) at $10 per 1500 credits and Add-on Credits (Personal) at $5 per 500 credits.
It lands 46 days after Netlify's previous change, "Netlify shifts personal plan analytics from 7-day to 1-day observability" (Feb 16, 2026). Netlify has been tracked since 2023-11-17.
In the same window Vercel, GitLab, Render, GitHub and Aws also changed their Software Development & Testing pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
