Editions
OpenViking is a self-evolving context database for AI agents. The core is fully open source and self-hostable; Enterprise adds private delivery, manageable licensing, and operational support on top. In every edition, context data stays inside your own environment.

Activated with a license key
Production-grade private delivery. The software still runs inside your environment; only a minimal license refresh and operational telemetry cross the boundary — and you control them.

Data boundary
Your agents' context, indexes, and raw content never leave. Both editions run the core inside your own infrastructure.
Only the license refresh (presenting the key for a short-lived signed lease) and optional operational telemetry (heartbeat, version, counters). Telemetry is operational, can be turned off, is never a billing source, and carries no customer content.
Get a trial key with your email, download the software, and activate it in your own environment. When you need Enterprise, upgrade through the same funnel.
