Licensing Overview
How ArgentOS licensing works — plans, features, and activation.
Overview
ArgentOS uses a licensing system to manage access to features across different tiers. The core platform is available to all users, with additional features unlocked through paid licenses.
License Tiers
| Tier | Features | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Community | Core agent, 1 channel, basic memory, CLI | Individual developers |
| Pro | All channels, model router, dashboard, TTS, heartbeat | Power users |
| Enterprise | Multi-agent, secret sync, org management, priority support | Teams & organizations |
How Licensing Works
- Purchase a license key from argentos.ai
- Activate the key on your ArgentOS instance
- Verify -- ArgentOS periodically verifies the license is valid
- Use -- Licensed features are unlocked based on your tier
License Keys
A license key looks like:
ARGENT-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXKeys are tied to a hardware fingerprint after activation, preventing unauthorized sharing.
Offline Support
After initial activation, ArgentOS works offline with a grace period. The license is verified locally using a cached token. Online verification is required periodically to maintain active status.
