Add-On licensing guide

Licensing basics

To use the Add-Ons, you must have a valid license key (either trial or full). License keys are generated during checkout, and Add-Ons will prompt you to activate the key upon first use. Activation requires a working internet connection, but after that, you can use the Add-Ons offline.

One license key is valid for a single computer and for a single version of Archicad.

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.

Company license

Company licenses work based on your Archicad license, so no license key is needed. Contact us for details.

Frequently asked questions
