Pricing

Own the engine, or pay per document.

Palatine renders where your code already runs: from the browser, in a desktop or mobile app, or on your servers, with the HTML and CSS you already know. Prefer not to host it? Call our API. Prices exclude VAT.

How buying works

Questions

How is a license priced?

We price the Palatine binaries from a rate grid based on your volume, between €3,000 and €50,000. The price includes one year of support and updates. Each following year costs 50% less, with support and updates still included. Contact us for a quote.

API or license?

The API suits small and irregular volumes. Once it would cost you more than €250 a month, we advise a license: rendering runs on your own machines or your users’ devices, with no per-document fees.

How long can a render take?

Up to 5 minutes per request on the API. The WebAssembly and native builds have no time limit.

How do I get started with the API?

Sign in with your email (no password), subscribe through Polar, our merchant of record, then create an API key in your dashboard. Your first request can go out a couple of minutes later.

What do I receive with a license?

An email with your license file and a private download link, also kept in your dashboard. Downloads are available as long as the license is valid.

What happens after a year?

The license renews at 50% off, with support and updates; after payment you receive a new license file. Without renewal, the engine prints a warning on every render for 30 days after the expiry date, then stops rendering.

Which versions can I use?

Every build released while your license is valid. A build released after your license expired refuses that license: renew to get it.

Does the engine phone home?

No. The license is checked offline, by a signature inside the license file.

Can I cancel the API?

Yes, from the billing portal in your dashboard. The subscription stays active until the end of the paid month.
