Comparison · Licensing-in-a-box

Don't build licensing.
Ship it this week.

Hardware binding, offline validation, key issuance, expiry, a dashboard — it's weeks of undifferentiated work every native-software vendor rebuilds. We already run it in production. License it instead.

Build it yourself vs buy it

Tools like Keygen, Cryptolens, and LicenseSpring also solve the buy side. Licensing-in-a-box is the offline-first, hardware-bound option built from a production engine. Compare current features for your stack.

What you get

A licensing stack, without the build

Hardware-bound by default

Licenses are cryptographically tied to MAC + hostname, so they can't be copied between machines.

Offline-first

Your app validates the AES-256, signed license locally. No phone-home required.

Production-proven

The same engine meters and bills our own Verify SDK across thousands of devices.

Dashboard + API

See active licenses and claims; meter usage through the API.

Generate a hardware-bound license now

The live demo issues a signed license and validates it offline — then fails it the moment the hardware changes. All in your browser.
