Licensing
Licensing basics
To use the Add-Ons, you must have a valid license key (either a trial or a full license). License keys are generated during checkout, and the Add-Ons will prompt you to activate your key the first time you use them. License validation requires an active internet connection. After a successful validation, however, the Add-Ons can be used offline for a limited period of time.
Important: All licenses are perpetual, cloud-based floating licenses and are valid for a single Archicad version. Upgrades for additional Archicad versions are available at 50% of the regular license price.
License types
Trial license
With a trial license, you can access the Add-On’s full functionality for a limited time. Trial licenses are free of charge and intended to allow you to test the functionality before purchasing a full license. No credit card information is needed during trial license checkout.
Full license
With a full license, you can use the Add-On with the corresponding Archicad version with full functionality forever.
