# Understanding Your Sync Budget

Each subscription tier has a daily budget that determines how many people can be processed per sync.

## How budgets work

Each tier has a per-account daily budget that determines how many followers, posts, and likers are processed per sync:

* **Starter**: 50 followers, 5 posts, 5 likers per account per day
* **Growth**: 100 followers, 10 posts, 10 likers per account per day
* **Pro**: 500 followers, 15 posts, 15 likers per account per day

Budget is tracked per account per day and resets at midnight UTC. Usage is visible on the Sync page.

## Delta-based fetching

Syncs only fetch **new** followers since the last scan - not your entire follower list every time. This means your budget is spent on discovering new people, not re-processing existing ones.

## Pro Boost (pull-forward)

Pro tier users can "boost" a sync by pulling forward budget from future days in the billing period:

1. Go to the **Sync** page
2. Use the boost slider on a Pro account to select how many days to pull forward (up to 7)
3. Click **Sync Now**
4. The boosted sync runs immediately with the combined budget

After a boosted sync, regular syncs are paused until the pulled-forward days have passed. You will see a message: "Syncs paused until \[date]".

### Who can use Boost?

* Only **Pro** tier users
* You must have remaining days in your billing period
* You cannot boost while a previous boost is still in its skip period
* The boost slider is disabled on your very first sync

## Budget exhausted

If your daily budget runs out during a sync, the fetch stops at the budget limit. Remaining candidates will be picked up in the next sync.

## Budget reset

Your budget resets automatically when your Stripe subscription renews at the start of each billing period.
