Licensing and Support
Aidbox offers developers a smooth path from a tiny digital health app prototype to a country-wide deployment of a global healthcare solution. Health Samurai is always around to ensure developers get all the necessary support.
Aidbox license types
| Aidbox Edition | Price |
| Aidbox production license | $ |
| Development license | free |
Production license
A production license allows running Aidbox for 14 days (trial) and then can be extended by the Health Samurai team for production usage with PHI data. Please contact us for more details.
Development license
The Aidbox development license is intended exclusively for development, testing, and demonstration purposes. It comes with one restriction: no PHI — users must not load real healthcare data or Protected Health Information into any Aidbox instance operating under a Development license.
Production-ready Aidbox as a SaaS
You can get a turn-key production-ready Aidbox as a SaaS to start your development in minutes.
Aidbox for education
For non-profit educational institutions, the Health Samurai provides Aidbox licenses that can be used for instructional and non-commercial academic research. Please contact us for more information.
What a license covers
An Aidbox license is tied to a dataset, not to a running process. One license covers one Aidbox database and every Aidbox instance that serves it, so a single production license covers:
- Highly available deployments — any number of Aidbox instances running against the same database. Scaling replicas up or down needs no license change.
- Read-only replicas — PostgreSQL read replicas and the Aidbox instances serving from them.
- Disaster recovery — a standby site replicating the same dataset.
A separate production license is needed for a separate dataset — an independent production environment with its own database.
Staging and test environments that hold no PHI can run on free development licenses. An environment with its own database that does hold PHI needs its own production license.
Aidbox Support
We know that starting with new technology is a challenge. That's why we are inviting Aidbox users to subscribe to one of Aidbox Support tiers from their first days with Aidbox. It might be the time when you need Aidbox Support the most.
