Figshare · FinOps Profile

Figshare Finops

Figshare uses a freemium + one-time publishing charge billing model. Free individual accounts have no recurring cost. Figshare+ tiers charge a one-time Data Publishing Charge (DPC) based on storage volume in 250GB increments. Institutional plans are subscription-based with custom pricing. There are no API usage fees — all API access is included in the account tier.
