Beta and pricing
Is the public beta free?
Yes. The beta is unrestricted and needs no account, payment or license key.
What will Cargocat cost after the beta?
The founding license is planned as a $14.99 one-time purchase, not a subscription. It will include lifetime use, free future updates and all supported platforms. A 14-day full-featured trial will not require an account or payment card.
Is the beta ready for production storage?
It is real software, but it is still a beta. Start with a read-only connection and data you can recover. Amazon S3 is verified in real use, while MinIO, RustFS and Garage run through conformance and transfer suites. The other presets need broader field testing.
Will paid licenses have a refund window?
Yes. When sales open, paid licenses will have a 14-day refund window. Questions can go to support@cargocat.app.
