# Sponsoring tiers
|
||||
|
||||
We offer a range of sponsoring tiers tailored to the diverse needs of our
|
||||
community. Whether you're an individual user, or rooted in academia, or work in
|
||||
an organization using our software commercially, there's a sponsoring tier
|
||||
that suits your needs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Choosing a tier
|
||||
|
||||
Choosing the right sponsoring tier depends on your needs and how you intend to
|
||||
use Material for MkDocs Insiders. Our tiers are categorized into [non-commercial]
|
||||
and [commercial] use:
|
||||
|
||||
- __Non-commercial tiers__: Intended for individuals, Open Source projects,
|
||||
and academic use
|
||||
- __Commercial tiers__: Designed for organizations and enterprises of any size
|
||||
|
||||
Each [monthly sponsoring tier] offers a range of benefits tailored to your needs.
|
||||
Benefits include access to our private Material for MkDocs Insiders repository,
|
||||
priority handling of bug reports, and more, which vary by the number of
|
||||
projects[^1] that you intend to build with it and collaborators required.
|
||||
Remember, you can always [upgrade or downgrade] your
|
||||
sponsorship level at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
[^1]:
|
||||
A project is defined as a folder with a `mkdocs.yml` configuration file
|
||||
that is built with Material for MkDocs Insiders. This is the only limitation
|
||||
to follow – the number of documentation pages or the size of your project
|
||||
is up to you.
|
||||
|
||||
[monthly sponsoring tier]: #monthly-sponsoring
|
||||
[non-commercial]: #non-commercial-use
|
||||
[commercial]: #commercial-use
|
||||
[upgrade or downgrade]: #switching-tiers
|
||||
|
||||
## Monthly sponsoring
|
||||
|
||||
Monthly sponsoring tiers provide you with access to our private Material for
|
||||
MkDocs Insiders repository. Your financial contribution supports the ongoing
|
||||
development of both the Insiders and the community edition.
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-commercial use
|
||||
|
||||
Non-commercial use essentially means "personal use". This includes individuals
|
||||
using the Insiders edition for personal or purely non-commercial Open Source
|
||||
projects. We offer two different tiers for non-commercial use.
|
||||

### Commercial use
|
||||
|
||||
Commercial use refers to any use of our software for a business or for-profit
|
||||
purpose. This includes any use by a corporation or other organization, whether
|
||||
or not they generate revenue directly from the software. We offer different
|
||||
pricing tiers for commercial use, each tailored to the needs of different
|
||||
businesses. It's important to note that internal use of the software within your
|
||||
organization is also considered commercial use, as with all commercial software.
|
||||

|
||||
#### The Organization :star:

||||
|
||||
Your organization uses Material for MkDocs for its documentation or internal
|
||||
knowledge base and wants to make sure that it is well-maintained and safe to use
|
||||
for the years to come. You agree that $125 a month (less than 1 hour of a
|
||||
skilled developer) is a clever investment into a solution, solving tons of
|
||||
problems you don't want to fight yourself.

||||
|
||||
Your organization runs many internal and public-facing sites that are built with
|

Material for MkDocs, helping you to share and manage knowledge efficiently.
|
||||
You've evaluated several commercial alternatives which will cost you 3-4x more,
|
||||
some of which with a smaller feature set. You agree that $250 a month (less than
|
||||
2 hours of a skilled developer) is a very good deal for the value you're getting
|
||||
out of it.

## Custom amount
|
||||
|
||||
You're invited to contribute custom sponsorship amounts via GitHub Sponsors,
|
||||
enabling you to support Material for MkDocs according to your preferences.
|
||||
Please be aware that individuals need to pledge a minimum of $15 a month to
|
||||
access Insiders, whereas organizations are encouraged to sponsor $125 a month or
|
||||
more, based on their requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributions exceeding these thresholds are highly appreciated. Please note
|
||||
that one-time donations, regardless of their size, won't be granted access to
|
||||
Insiders due to technical constraints.
|
||||
|
||||
## Switching tiers
|
||||
|
||||
You can easily switch between different sponsorship tiers — [upgrade] or
|
||||
[downgrade] — at any time. Simply visit the @squidfunk's
|
||||
[GitHub Sponsors profile] and adjust your sponsorship tier selection. Once
|
||||
you've made the change, you'll immediately sponsor at the new tier.
|
||||
|
||||
If you exceed the number of projects within your current sponsorship limit, we
|
||||
kindly request that you upgrade your sponsorship to a higher tier to retain
|
||||
access to Material for MkDocs Insiders. The change takes effect immediately,
|
||||
and the amount is prorated based on your [billing cycle].
