Important Change

Due to security concerns, the subscription model is being dropped. The software will only be offered as downloadable offline copies.

A trial version with license activation will be available. Upon purchase, you’ll enter a license key—your data stays intact.

Pricing will shift to a per-module model. Details coming soon.
