License
The grant of rights you receive when you purchase GlassKit, in plain English.
Last update May 20, 2026
[01]·Summary in plain English
You can use GlassKitto build and ship commercial software products, modify the code however you want, and keep your access forever as long as you don't break these terms.
You can't resell, redistribute, or repackage GlassKit itself as a starter kit, template, or competing boilerplate.
Everything else is detail. Read on if you want the legal phrasing.
[02]·Grant of license
By purchasing a GlassKit license, you (the licensee) are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license to use the GlassKit boilerplate to build and ship commercial software, subject to the terms below and your purchased tier:
- Maker ($299): unlimited commercial products. Build and ship as many products of your own as you want on the GlassKit foundation.
- Agency ($1,299): Maker rights plus the right to use GlassKit for client work. Unlimited projects built for clients, shipped under the client's brand with no GlassKit attribution required (white-label rights). The Maker license does not permit work-for-hire / client projects.
[03]·What "commercial product" means
A “commercial product” is any distinct application, website, or service that you build using GlassKit as a foundation and that you intend to monetize (directly or indirectly). Examples:
- A SaaS app that charges users a subscription: one commercial product
- A one-time-purchase app you sell: one commercial product
- A free app that generates revenue through ads or sponsorships: one commercial product
- A client project built for someone else (Agency tier only): one commercial product per client engagement
- A personal portfolio site, hobby project, or learning project with no monetization plan does not count against your license. Use freely.
[04]·You may
- Use GlassKit as the starting point for unlimited products: your own products on the Maker license, and client projects too on the Agency license
- Modify the code in any way
- Ship your products built on GlassKit publicly, privately, or commercially
- Charge your own customers for products built on GlassKit
- Use GlassKit for free non-commercial work (personal projects, learning, portfolios)
- Use the open-source dependencies of GlassKit according to their respective licenses
[05]·You may not
- Resell, sublicense, or redistribute GlassKit itself, modified or unmodified, as a boilerplate, template, starter kit, theme, or competing product
- Share your GitHub repository access with anyone outside your licensed team. Agency tier permits 5 collaborator seats; all other tiers are strictly one seat per license
- Use the GlassKit name, logo, or branding to promote derivative products without explicit written permission
- Use GlassKit to build a product that primarily exists to compete with GlassKit (e.g., another commercial boilerplate for the Meta Ray-Ban Display platform)
- Distribute the contents of the GlassKit repository publicly (e.g., on GitHub, npm, or any other public registry)
[06]·Updates
License holders keep access to the private GitHub repository and to any updates we publish there. Updates are provided at our discretion and are not guaranteed for any particular period; when shipped, they are non-breaking by default, and major version bumps are announced at least 14 days in advance.
You are not obligated to update your existing products to use new versions of GlassKit. Your shipped products are yours to maintain at your own pace.
[07]·Your team
A GlassKit license belongs to one person or one company. Once you have repository access, the colleagues on your team (or, on the Agency tier, on a client project) may work from the codebase with you. There are no per-seat limits, because a shared codebase has no meaningful per-seat metering. What the license governs is not headcount but scope: how many products you may ship, and whether you may do client work (see section 02).
You may not share repository access, the invitation, or the source with anyone outside your company or the specific client engagement the Agency license covers.
[08]·Termination
This license terminates automatically if you breach its terms. On termination:
- GlassKit may revoke your repository access without notice
- You lose access to future updates, but products you have already shipped are not affected
- You are not required to delete GlassKit code from existing products
[09]·Sales are final
Because GlassKit grants the full product (repository invite, Discord role, future perks) at the moment of purchase, all sales are final. The only exception is a genuine, unfixable technical defect. See Terms of Service, section 04. If a refund is ever issued under that exception, your license is revoked, your repository access is removed, and you must delete all local copies and may not use GlassKit for any commercial product.
[10]·Warranty disclaimer
GlassKitis provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. The full disclaimer and limitation of liability are in our Terms of Service, sections 10 and 11.
