Single use license

The single use license permits you to run an instance of the library in conjunction with your built executable during the term.

  • Uses a runtime key issued with license which expires with term
  • Key may be node-locked or floating (key is node locked to a key server)
  • Only one execution may run at a given time for each key issued
  • Not redistributable to third parties

Pricing is based on the customer’s total revenue (TR) level:

  • Less than $1M TR: $ 10,000
  • Less than $5M TR: $ 25,000
  • Over $5M TR: $ 50,000

Single build certification

The single build certification model allows you to obtain a runtime certificate for a specific executable. A single executable build is submitted to SBT who generates the runtime certificate. The certified build is:

  • Re-hostable (not node locked)
  • Unlimited simultaneous executions
  • Permanent license to run
  • Redistributable to third parties

Each single build certification costs $2,500

Parallel Multi-Processing

A customized multi-machine parallel version of the library is also available by special arrangement. We are working toward having a general use multi-machine parallel version of the library available in the near future.

Evaluation and Academic Licenses

Free, limited time evaluation licenses for the LSA_Toolkit are available, as are special licenses for academic institutions involved in research.
