License
Annex Orbis is open-core software.
Open source — AGPLv3
The Annex Orbis platform is free and open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3. You may use, study, modify, self-host, and redistribute it. Source repositories are published under the ANNEX ORBIS Inc. organization. If you modify Annex Orbis and run it as a network service for others, AGPL §13 requires you to offer them your modified source — plain self-hosting for your own organization triggers no such obligation.
Commercial license
Need to embed Annex Orbis in a proprietary product, or can’t comply with AGPL for policy reasons? A commercial license from ANNEX ORBIS Inc. waives the copyleft obligation and unlocks the enterprise modules. Contact info@annexorbis.com.
The hosted service
Most customers don’t self-host — they use the managed service at annexorbis.com pricing, where we run it, back it up, and keep it updated. Same code, zero ops.
Your data stays yours
Open source covers our software — not your content. Everything you put into Annex Orbis is yours: exportable, never used to train AI models, and end-to-end-encrypted mailboxes are readable only by their key holders. Because the code is open, you can verify that yourself. See the Privacy Policy.
Trademarks
The code is open; the name is not. “Annex Orbis” and the Annex Orbis wordmark are trademarks of ANNEX ORBIS Inc.. You may say your product integrates with or is based on Annex Orbis; you may not name your own product or a redistributed fork “annexorbis.”
