PointSav Documentation

Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

## License tiers

Two tiers are available. The open-source tier is licensed under Apache 2.0. The
commercial tier is licensed under the Functional Source Licence (FSL). Both tiers are
one-time purchases; there are no subscriptions. The tier is encoded in the token's
entitlements field and in the payment receipt. Current pricing is published at

**Correction (2026-08-02, verified against canonical `origin/main`):** this "two tiers" framing is an oversimplification. The real, ratified model (per the 2026-07-07 licensing BRIEF, confirmed in `app-privategit-marketplace-2`) has four tiers — Proprietary, AGPL, and FSL, plus a fourth — not two, and no tier uses plain Apache 2.0. **Flagged, not resolved.**
`software.pointsav.com`.
Four tiers are available: Proprietary, FSL, AGPL, and Apache. Proprietary grants a
license key with no source-code disclosure. FSL sells a license key against source that
converts automatically to Apache-2.0 for each release after a fixed period. AGPL sells a
commercial-alternative key for source already public under AGPL. Apache is a genuine,
unconditional open-source grant — no purchase required, the binary is available here
purely for convenience. All four are one-time purchases; there are no subscriptions. The
tier is encoded in the token's entitlements field and in the payment receipt. Current
pricing is published at `software.pointsav.com`.

## What this system is not

The substrate handles payments, token issuance, and binary delivery. It does not manage
subscriptions — all purchases are perpetual one-time transactions. It does not create
customer accounts. It does not restrict access to source code: the GitHub repository is
separately public under the Apache 2.0 licence. Customers who purchase the commercial FSL
tier receive a license key that unlocks the binary distribution; source-code terms are
governed by the respective licence, not by this system.
customer accounts. It does not restrict access to source code for the tiers whose source
is already public — a customer buying an Apache or AGPL license key can read the
corresponding source on GitHub without paying anything; the license key here buys a
convenience binary, not access. Customers who purchase an FSL or Proprietary tier receive
a license key that unlocks the binary distribution; source-code terms are governed by the
respective license, not by this system.
