Understanding our approach to licensing

license-status.txt
$ cat license-status.txt LICENSE MODEL Software Type: Proprietary Source Code: Closed Source Availability: Commercial License # Stategraph is proprietary software. # This model enables us to build sustainable, # high-quality infrastructure tooling for the long term.

Why Proprietary

Sustainable development requires predictable revenue. Stategraph solves a specific, critical problem: managing Terraform/OpenTofu state at scale. Building and maintaining infrastructure tooling demands ongoing investment in development, testing, security, and support. A proprietary model gives us the financial foundation to deliver on that promise.

Your infrastructure deserves dedicated support. Critical infrastructure tools need professional support, security patches, and long-term maintenance. Proprietary licensing enables us to provide enterprise-grade support with a sustainable business model.

Your needs drive our roadmap. We build features that solve real infrastructure problems for real teams. Proprietary software with fair pricing means we stay focused on what matters: making your Terraform/OpenTofu workflows better.

What This Means for You

Proprietary doesn't mean opaque or unfair. Here's what you can expect from us:

  • Clear, transparent licensing terms with no gotchas
  • Fair pricing that reflects the value Stategraph provides
  • Predictable roadmap driven by customer feedback and real-world needs
  • Professional support and regular security updates
  • Long-term stability without sudden pivots or rug pulls

We're not open source, but we're building in the open. We share our thinking, our roadmap, and our engineering decisions. Proprietary software can still be built with transparency and integrity.
