How it works

Choose AGPL-3.0 (free, open source) or go Commercial to keep changes private. Both paths allow commercial use.

  • AGPL-3.0: free, open source, commercial use allowed; share changes if you modify Pubflow and run it as a hosted service.
  • Commercial License: keep modifications private, includes support/SLA, and removes copyleft obligations.
  • Start free on AGPL-3.0 and switch to Commercial anytime—no code changes required.

Starter kits

  • Most starter kits are MIT: copy, remix, and ship without extra obligations.
  • If a starter kit is dual-licensed, the same AGPL-3.0 or Commercial choice applies.
  • All starter kits remain free for commercial use.
