Frequently asked questions
What counts as commercial use?
Any use where you or your organisation derive economic value, directly or indirectly. That includes internal tools inside a revenue-generating business and startups of any stage.
Can I try it commercially before buying?
Yes. The free Cloud Developer plan lets you evaluate the full API with BYOK. It is not intended for sustained commercial production use — upgrade to Pro or Team before you ship.
When does BSL 1.1 convert to open source?
Each version becomes Apache 2.0 four years after release. The exact Change Date is listed in LICENSE.txt.
