Fair Source - uniting user freedom and developer sustainability

Fair Source - uniting user freedom and developer sustainability

Fair Source aims to help software companies engage with the wider developer community, while staying in charge of their business model. Fair Source licenses software that is publicly available to read, use, modify and redistribute with minimal restrictions, and under delayed Open Source publication (DOSP). A suite of companies have already migrated over to Fair Source licenses (including Sentry, GitButler, Keygen and more) and there are several licenses to choose from. If you like the idea of being Open Source, but would also prefer to reserve a few exclusive rights to your product in order to help achieve a sustainable business model – then Fair Source may be the choice for you.
