Hello, I have already applied for getting higher image limits for research purposes for my bachelor thesis. I have not gotten any mail or feedback after submitting the form in both cases. Please increase my image limits so I can continue working on my project. Thanks! ---

Hello - your account limits were increased as requested. ---

Hello, thanks for increasing my account limits. I see that they have been increased from 10000 to 25000, which already is great, however I currently have a dataset of 9608 images and another one of 21000, which means I cannot keep both of these datasets on Roboflow. Would it be possible to increase the limits a bit more to like 40K or 50K or something? Thank you! ---

Hello! In order to expand image limits beyond 25000, we will need to remove your remaining training credits because the GPU cost for trainings that very high. You can always use our open source notebooks with your own compute resources [GitHub - roboflow/notebooks: Examples and tutorials on using SOTA computer vision models and techniques. Learn everything from old-school ResNet, through YOLO and object-detection transformers like DETR, to the latest models like Grounding DINO and SAM.](https://github.com/roboflow/notebooks) If this is ok with you, I can increase your image limits to 50k. ---

I got a notification that my training credits are gone, which they should, but my image limit is still at 25000, which means I could not upload my dataset. Could you check if the limit has correctly been modified? ---

Apologies for the error. This should be working as expected now. ---

Hi @irshadali We recently implemented a new automated research credit process. Head to Settings \> Plan & Billing to choose expanded Training access or increased Image limits. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/roboflow1/original/2X/6/69e708bc58a5c5f6483db34b953cca6b4d11fa7c.jpeg) ---

Hi Sir, I am a student and i am also using roboflow for educational purpose. I am doing my final year project with roboflow. Can you also kindly help me increase my credits. I am unable to purchase the premium version as it is too pricy for me. I hope you will help me. Thank you in advance. ---

Hi, my student group and I would like to apply for Research Credits because we are currently working on an image segmentation school project, and we are in the middle of the step where we have to label our recently collected data. We have now stumbled across the fact that we have reached our free limit of 15 credits per month for Smart Polygon which is the only thing we use. We would like to know if it’s possible to get more credits so we can finish labeling our dataset. We have a total of around 10.000 images (not all are uploaded yet). Thank you. ---

If you have an eligible educational/academic email address, you can automatically select the Research Plan by going into `Settings > Plan & Billing`. > If you are on a trial or paid plan, you must first switch or cancel to the Public plan. The Research and Public plans require data to be public and shared so others in the open source community can benefit. For private data, please see the [pricing page](https://roboflow.com/pricing). ---
