Is it really free, or free until it gets useful?
Free to self-host with no seat cap and no expiry, and that includes every source, every surface, encryption at rest, and recall across your own past conversations. Memory adds one thing that has never shipped free: keeping the words of a conversation. Nothing moves from free to paid.
Why flat per organization instead of per seat?
Two reasons. A memory gets more useful the more people it covers, so charging per seat would punish the adoption that makes it work. And whodar cannot count seats without phoning home, which it will never do. Flat is the only price we can charge honestly.
What happens if we stop paying?
whodar drops to the free tier. Everything already on disk stays there and stays readable, and recall keeps working. New conversations stop being kept until you renew. Your data is never deleted or locked by a license check.
Does anything leave our network?
No. Indexing talks only to the sources you name, with your own tokens. Answers are computed locally, and the default egress policy forbids sending anything to any model beyond your machine. The license is verified offline against a key compiled into the binary, so a licensed install works air-gapped.
What does the license allow?
whodar is source-available under the Business Source License 1.1. Read it, modify it, self-host it, and run it in production inside your company, free, with no seat count. The one restriction is offering whodar to third parties as a hosted service. It converts to Apache 2.0 on 2030-08-03. See the LICENSE for the exact terms.
How do we actually buy Memory?
Email hello@whodar.dev. There is no checkout yet, on purpose: we would rather understand what you are trying to keep before you pay for it.
