Trial and paid account limitations
Data download
Sketch Engine contains many valuable corpora. To protect their content, there are limitations to how much data can be viewed and downloaded from Sketch Engine. This limit can be removed. See the conditions below.
Corpus building (user corpora)
Each user is entitled to a storage space of 1,000,000 words for their own user corpora. More space can be purchased. Trial users can increase their storage space only if they upgrade to a paid account (subscription) first and then purchase extra space.
Download limits
The download limits apply to preloaded corpora only. No limits are applied to downloading data from user’s own corpora. The limit can be removed for a fee.
