Pricing Q&A

Is the open source software really free?
Yes. The full toolkit is on GitHub under an open source license. No license keys, no usage caps, no commercial review. Self-host it on whatever you want.
How is Philter Desktop licensed and priced?
Philter Desktop is free for personal and evaluation use, and $100 per user per year for commercial use. The app itself is open source under the Apache 2.0 license. See the Philter Desktop page for details.
What does Philter on the marketplaces cost?
$0.49/hr on the AWS Marketplace, billed through your existing AWS account. That works out to roughly $360/month for a single always-on instance. Google Cloud and Azure marketplace pricing is in the same ballpark; check each listing for the exact figure. The full TCO comparison walks through how that scales versus commercial PII APIs.
What license terms govern the paid marketplace deployment?
The paid marketplace deployment is governed by the Philterd Commercial License Agreement (the EULA you accept at purchase), which covers the official build, updates, and support. Philter's source code stays open source under the Apache 2.0 license, and the commercial agreement does not limit your rights in the open-source code.
What is your refund and cancellation policy?
See our Refund and Cancellation Policy for how refunds and cancellations are handled. Purchases made through a cloud marketplace are also subject to that marketplace's billing, refund, and cancellation terms.
Do I need a BAA for healthcare deployments?
All our products run on your own hardware, whether that is in the cloud, on-premises, or on your desktop, so data never leaves your environment and there is nothing for Philterd to be a business associate of. We can sign a software BAA when a consulting engagement involves Philterd staff touching your data. See Security & Trust for the full reasoning.
Is there a free trial of the marketplace listings?
A free trial may be available; check the pricing details on the AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure marketplace listing for up-to-date information.
