Frequently asked

What's included in the $500?
A perpetual license to run SealRoute on your own infrastructure, with unlimited users, unlimited documents, and all features (API, webhooks, DOCX pipeline, audit trail, branding, OTP 2FA). You also get 12 months of updates from purchase.
What happens after year 1?
Your license never expires — you can keep using the version you have forever. To continue receiving updates after the first year, you can renew update support at a reduced rate.
Are there any per-user or per-envelope fees?
No. Add as many users and send as many documents as your hardware supports. Your cost is fixed regardless of volume.
Where is my data stored?
On your own servers, your own database, and your own object storage. Nothing goes to a vendor cloud unless you explicitly configure it. This is ideal for regulated industries (finance, healthcare, legal, government).
Can I migrate away later?
Yes. All signed PDFs, audit trail PDFs, and submission data live in standard formats on your storage. There's no lock-in.

Buy once. Use forever.

Skip the per-seat treadmill. Self-host, own your data, and pay $500.
