Build proprietary on Fleetbase. No AGPL strings attached.
The Fleetbase Commercial License removes AGPL-3.0 copyleft obligations entirely — so you can ship customised versions, build SaaS products, white-label deployments, and protect your custom code under your own terms.
Most licenses close in 5–10 business days. Pilot Monthly Licenses can be issued within 48 hours.
Why your business probably needs one
Fleetbase Core is AGPL-3.0. That's ideal for internal use and community contribution — but the network copyleft clause means any modifications you deploy as a service must also be released under AGPL. For commercial use, that's often a non-starter.
Under AGPL-3.0
Modifications deployed over a network must be released as AGPL. No proprietary customisations. No private SaaS modifications.
In legal review
Enterprise procurement and legal teams flag AGPL on every commercial contract. A commercial license neutralises the conversation entirely.
With a Commercial License
Build, modify, and distribute proprietary versions of Fleetbase under your own terms. AGPL obligations don't apply.
What the Commercial License includes
Every commercial license — Annual, Monthly, or Perpetual — includes the rights below. Annual licenses additionally include Business Support and rolling upgrades.
Proprietary modifications
Build customisations, integrations, and bespoke features without any obligation to release the source. Your IP stays your IP.
SaaS distribution rights
Deploy modified versions of Fleetbase as a service to your customers — without triggering AGPL's network copyleft clause.
White-label & OEM rights
Rebrand and resell Fleetbase as your own product. Ship to enterprise customers under your name, your contracts, your terms.
Business Support included
Annual licences include direct access to our engineering team for production support, with documented response SLAs.
All upgrades during term
Annual and monthly licences cover every release during your active term — security patches, new features, and major versions.
IP indemnification
We stand behind the platform. Commercial licensees receive contractual indemnification against IP claims arising from the core platform.
Who buys a Commercial License
Four scenarios cover the majority of commercial license customers. If your situation looks similar, it's probably the right path.
SaaS providers
Building a logistics SaaS product on top of Fleetbase. You deploy a modified version to multiple customers and need to keep your modifications confidential.
OEM & white-label
Embedding Fleetbase under your own brand for distribution to your customers. You need full sub-licensing and rebranding rights.
Enterprises with proprietary IP
Internal-use deployments with proprietary integrations or workflows that include trade-secret business logic you can't open-source.
Managed service providers
Running Fleetbase on behalf of multiple client tenants with custom modifications, integrations, or vertical extensions per client.
