Warned before, not after
The cap appears ahead of a large import, so you never discover the free limit by watching a job fail partway through.

Import-limit guardrails
The free-plan cap is explained before a big import, not after it fails.
Overview
What Import-limit guardrails does
Import-limit guardrails make the free plan's boundaries visible at exactly the right moment. Before a large import would push the vault past 2,000 entries or 50 topics, 1AIVault surfaces the cap and explains what will and will not fit. You find out up front, while you can still decide how to proceed, rather than watching an import stall halfway with no explanation.
The dialog frames the limit as a clear choice, not a dead end. You can trim what you import, keep the most valuable conversations within the free caps, or upgrade to Pro to remove the limits entirely. Because the prompt appears at the point of action, the upgrade moment lands when it is genuinely useful instead of interrupting work at random.

Why it matters
The payoff for your AI memory
A clear choice, not a wall
The dialog explains the 2,000-entry and 50-topic caps and lets you trim the import or upgrade — no silent truncation.
Right-timed upgrade prompt
Because the limit surfaces at the point of import, Pro is offered exactly when removing the cap would actually help.
How it works
From first launch to reusable memory
- 1
Start an import from Collect as usual.
- 2
If it would exceed the free caps, read the import-limit dialog explaining what fits.
- 3
Choose to import within the limit or upgrade to Pro to remove it.
FAQ
Common questions
What is the 1AIVault free import limit?
Free mode holds 2,000 entries and 50 topics. If an import would exceed that, the app shows a dialog explaining the cap before anything is imported.
What happens when I hit the import limit?
1AIVault surfaces a guardrail dialog before the import runs, so you can trim the batch to fit the free caps or upgrade to Pro to remove them.
