Production tiers use revenue from the last completed financial year; for group companies, use consolidated group revenue.
Prices exclude taxes. Consulting, integration and support are available with every license and quoted separately, as are AI provider fees. Hosting by Qunevo requires a Custom license and an agreed scope of services.
Yes. All offers, including Custom, can run locally or in your own cloud. Free, Business, Business Plus and the perpetual license are self-service offers. Connect your own AI models through a compatible agent platform using MCP or HTTP; a cloud-based agent needs a reachable, secured endpoint. We can help with setup, integration and operation under a separate agreement. If you want Qunevo to host Apex, request a Custom license with the services you need.
Download Apex and start with the sample data. Then map an existing export to one planning task and compare the results with your current schedule. The license permits up to 90 days of non-operational evaluation, including shadow tests whose results do not influence live production. Operational use needs the applicable Free or paid entitlement from the start.
Is Apex open source, and can we adapt the code?
+
The code is public under the APEX Source Available License 1.1. You can inspect it, adapt it and maintain your own version within the licensed scope. This is a source-available license, not an OSI open-source license. Free and commercial use depend on your revenue and use case.
Who can use Apex free of charge?
+
Free use covers a manufacturing company's own production up to and including EUR 2 million annual revenue, and qualifying non-commercial academic research and teaching. Group companies use consolidated group revenue for eligibility. Multi-company operations, SaaS, OEM and white-label use need a separate scope. See the pricing page for the applicable terms.
Can we buy Apex with a perpetual license?
+
Yes. The perpetual license is a self-service offer from EUR 8,000 plus taxes. You host Apex yourself and connect your own AI models; we can help with setup and integration under a separate agreement. The quote depends on company size and agreed scope. You may keep using and adapting the purchased version for that scope; later revenue growth does not add license fees. Future versions, additional companies, new uses and services need a separate agreement.
What is included in self-service, and what can Qunevo take care of?
+
Free, Business, Business Plus and the perpetual license are self-service licenses for your own infrastructure and AI models. We can help with consulting, setup, integration and training for any offer; these services are quoted separately. Custom can also be operated locally. Hosting by Qunevo requires a Custom license, with hosting, AI provider costs and ongoing support agreed in your quote. There is no Apex fee per user or planning run within the licensed scope.
