Licentivo: AI-assisted software licensing — looking for 30 developer testers

#showdev

I'm the developer of Licentivo, a software licensing API, dashboard, and set of SDKs. I'm looking for 30 developers to try integrating it into a real project or a small test app, and help identify integration issues and unexpected licensing behavior.

Licentivo brings together license activation, device limits, offline access, feature permissions, and floating seats. SDKs are available for Go, Java, C, C++, C#, Python, JavaScript, Rust, and Ruby.

The part I'd especially like feedback on is AI-assisted integration. In the console, you configure your product and licensing policy, then copy the generated English integration prompt into your AI coding tool with your project open. The prompt covers SDK installation, protecting the relevant feature, activation, offline behavior, and checks.

The workflow is:

  1. Create your product and configure its licensing policy.
  2. Copy the console's English integration prompt into your AI coding tool.
  3. Review the integration changes and run your app.
  4. Enter the activation key yourself and test the protected feature.

Manual SDK integration is available too.

A successful first activation is only one part of the test. The most useful feedback would cover these cases:

  • Can you get from setup to your first successful activation? Which step is confusing or fails?
  • Do valid and invalid licenses produce the expected behavior at the protected feature?
  • Do device limits behave according to the policy you configured?
  • After disconnecting from the network, does access follow your configured offline allowance?
  • What did you still need to figure out after using the AI integration prompt?

Offline allowance and device limits are configurable. Please compare the results with your own policy settings when reporting an issue.

For this round, the first 30 redemptions receive three months of the Starter plan free. The plan includes a 1,200-device quota and no monthly API-call limit.

Code: PROMO-FCBC409A407F

Create a Licentivo account, open the console, and go to Usage and billing > Redeem code. One initial three-month gift per account across this recruitment round.

There is additional free time for feedback that helps improve the product: each suggestion we adopt or bug report we verify earns one extra month. Each account can receive up to three additional months through feedback, for up to six months including the initial gift.

For feedback extensions, email support@licentivo.com with your Licentivo account email and a clear description. For bugs, please include your SDK/language and version, operating system, reproduction steps, expected behavior, and actual behavior. Extra months are issued after verification.

Personal projects and small test apps are welcome. I'm happy to answer integration questions in the comments.
