Terms & license.
Plain-language summary of how Genlock is licensed and what you own. This page summarizes the model; the in-app license terms govern.
License model
Genlock uses a trial-then-purchase license model. There is no permanent free edition, subscription, or middle tier:
- 7-day trial — the complete product with every feature enabled, including in-app generation, MCP Autopilot, custom BONE creation, and exports.
- Universal — $119 one-time — continued use of the complete product after the trial. Minor updates are included; major version upgrades are optional at $29.95.
When a trial or time-limited QA key expires, a Universal purchase is required to continue using Genlock. Studio is multi-seat Universal issued under a single invoice; it is an issuance variant of Universal, not a separate price.
Verification & ownership
License keys are Ed25519-signed and re-verified offline on every boot. The key lives in app-data (license.json), not in your workspace. Your projects, characters, prompts, and generated assets are yours and remain on your disk regardless of trial or license state.
Your data
Genlock does not receive, store, or transmit your story data. You bring your own generator and LLM credentials, which are used locally. You are responsible for complying with the terms of the third-party generators and models you connect.
No warranty for generated content
Genlock orchestrates third-party generators but does not generate content itself and makes no representation about the rights, accuracy, or suitability of any output produced by a connected provider.
