Choosing your license

Do you need an Ultralytics Enterprise license?

AGPL-3.0 covers a lot of use cases - but there are specific triggers that require an Ultralytics Enterprise license.

Free
AGPL-3.0
This license is the right one for you if you are comfortable open-sourcing your entire project under AGPL-3.0.
  • Academic research and university coursework
  • Personal projects, learning, and experimentation
  • Open-source applications where you can publicly release the full source code
  • Non-profit or government research if the project is completely disclosed
  • Evaluating Ultralytics YOLO in a fully open-source environment
  • Teams that want to build in public and benefit from open collaboration

Paid
Ultralytics Enterprise License
An Enterprise License is required if you want to use Ultralytics YOLO without open-sourcing your entire project.
  • Internal business tools or private company applications
  • Any commercial product or service
  • Proprietary / closed-source software
  • SaaS platforms, APIs, or cloud systems that use YOLO behind the scenes
  • Embedded deployments in hardware, edge devices, robotics, cameras, or appliances
  • Using custom-trained or fine-tuned YOLO models in a proprietary or commercial setting
  • R&D projects that are not fully open-sourced
  • Customer-facing solutions where you do not want to publish code, configs, training scripts, and related components
