Free Tier Components and Monthly Costs

Hello Community,
There is a lot of documentation on the Google Cloud Platform, and that is fantastic, but it also makes it a bit confusing for someone new to working with Google Cloud.

I have a "simple" question, and I hope someone knows the answer: I am currently on a free tier (for 90 days), and I understand that the $300 will be nulled after this period, but:
- are there any free components after the 90 days,
- is there a monthly limit, and
- for which modules is there a monthly limit?

I want to budget my use of the platform to inform my project about the potential costs when running a query.

I am looking forward to your suggestions and help.
Best regards,
Gijs

That's right, Gijs. After the free trial period, billing will accrue for any products and usage outside the free tier limits. Note though that, as mentioned in https://cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features#free-tier, the products and usage limits in the free tier might change over time. Closer to when your free trial period ends, I suggest checking the above again to see if there are any changes for Vertex AI.
