Additional License Options

We offer several types of licensing options for both our interactive and render-only plug-ins: floating license, non-floating license, and volume license (read the licensing overview for more information). If you are interested in volume licensing or have other questions about these license options, please contact us. All floating licenses require installing our floating license server.

Render-only license options

Render-only licensing is for use with After Effects' render-only program 'aerender'. Render-only licenses do not work in AE’s Render Queue (for Render Queue rendering you need an interactive license). Note that the SmoothKit render-only licenses only work on projects written with an interactive license (so you must have at least one standard, floating or Non-Floating interactive license for the render-only licenses to be valid).
