License
Elastic License 2.0 (ELv2) — commercial source-available.
Relay-E is licensed under the Elastic License 2.0 (ELv2).
What you can do
- Use it — run it internally, build products on top of it, integrate it into your stack.
- Read and modify the source — fork it, customise it, patch it for your use case.
- Distribute it to your own team or deploy it in your own infrastructure.
What you cannot do
- Offer it as a hosted or managed service to third parties. You cannot take Relay-E and sell "Relay-E hosting" or any competing managed AI orchestration service built on this codebase. That's our commercial right to protect.
- Remove or obscure licensing notices in the source.
- Circumvent any license key or access control functionality.
Why ELv2?
Relay-E is commercial software — not open source. ELv2 is the standard license for this category (Elasticsearch, Grafana, and many infrastructure products use it). It keeps the source readable and self-hostable for customers, while protecting the creator from AWS-style competitors cloning and reselling the platform.
If you want to embed Relay-E in a product you ship to your customers, that is permitted. If you want to offer a hosted Relay-E service to third parties, contact us for a commercial agreement.
