About Keylime
Licensing and client authentication made simple for indie software builders.
Protect what you build
Keylime was born out of a simple realization: indie developers, creators, and small shops selling desktop tools, plugins, and custom software spend too much time building licensing panels, validating hardware binds, and checking sessions.
Instead of spending weeks setting up complex database tables and writing custom API hooks to prevent key-sharing and cracking, Keylime lets you protect your product in minutes with our clean SDK flow.
Our core principles
Zero transaction cuts
We charge a flat monthly fee for our platform. We never take a percentage cut of your sales or software revenue.
Security first
From client session checks to hardware binding (HWID lock), our architecture is hardened against cracking attempts and license abuse.
Indie-developer friendly
No bloated enterprise agreements, no long negotiation sales cycles. Self-serve dashboard, simple pricing, and fast SDK setups.
Built for builders
We believe in enabling software creators to build profitable, secure products without the friction of bloated authentication wrappers. Keylime is lightweight, robust, and continuously upgraded to defend against current software redistribution threats.
