Licensing

Commercial licensing, to be announced.

DN Shield will be a commercially licensed product. Pricing, license terms, activation and update policies haven’t been finalised yet — we won’t publish numbers until they’re real.

Planned licensing options include individual developer licenses, business and team licenses, per-edition licenses, upgrades, and volume licensing for organisations. A shared architecture lets a single licensing system manage edition-specific entitlements.

Want pricing when it’s set? Request early access and we’ll notify you as editions and licensing become available.
