Does the license need the internet?: No. The certificate is verified offline on your server and keeps working without a connection. When it can reach us, the server checks the license once a day and picks up added seats; if it cannot, nothing changes.
How many servers can one license run?: One. A license binds to the first server that activates it. To move, release it under My licenses and activate the new server (3 releases a year).
What happens after the free updates end?: The versions you run keep every feature, forever. Only a version released after the updates window pauses the paid features until you renew.
Can an expired license lose data?: No. Without a license only the paid features hide; notes, sync, sign-in and export always work, and everything returns when you activate again.
How are seats counted?: In your server’s Users page, give seats to the people who need AI, content push or MCP. Everyone else needs no seat, without limit.
