 <p>The AGPLv3 license is often chosen because it works well for open core products like COSMOS. Competitors cannot take the open source product and license it under different terms. They would be forever locked into the AGPLv3 which is difficult to monetize, because your customers can take any code you provide and publish it on the internet for free use by everyone.</p>
 <p>As the copyright holder, OpenC3 is able to license the product and derivatives commercially. No-one else can do this. (OpenC3 is also able to license legacy Ball Aerospace COSMOS code under IP agreement)</p>

 <p>This license is a signed contract with OpenC3. It allows use of our code for a program under contractual terms where you do not have to follow the AGPLv3.</p>
 <p>Generally we license to a specific project with terms that allow for unlimited users, and installs as needed by that project. Any code and plugins that you develop under the commercial license can be kept proprietary.</p>
 <p>These licenses are sold as yearly subscriptions, or as a non-expiring perpetual license. We also offer site licenses, and licenses to support unlimited missions on a government framework architecture.</p>
 <p>Of course with our commercial license, you also get all the extra functionality of our Enterprise product.</p>
