Frequently asked questions
What does Korthex cost?
Four plans. Free is EUR 0 and free forever. Community, Business and Enterprise are paid tiers whose pricing is not final yet - no figure is published because none has been decided. Korthex is in open beta and access is currently free.
Is there a free version of Korthex?
Yes. The Free plan is free forever and carries the complete detection engine - 10 scans per month, up to 1,000 files per scan, one seat. It is not a time-limited trial and the rule set is not reduced.
Does Korthex send my source code anywhere?
No. Every plan runs 100% on-premise. Source code, binaries and scan results stay on the machine that runs the scan, and Korthex operates in an air-gapped environment without network access.
What is a seat in Korthex licensing?
A seat is one named user who can run scans and open results. Free and Community include one seat, Business five, Enterprise ten.
What happens when I exceed my monthly scan quota?
Scans beyond the plan quota are refused until the monthly counter resets; existing results stay accessible. The quota is per calendar month and counts completed scans.
