SOURCE-AVAILABLE / PRIVATE INFRASTRUCTURE

Self-host Snipara.Keep control.

Run shared Project Intelligence on your infrastructure, with every document, embedding, decision, and agent connection inside the boundary you control.

Licensed under FSL-1.1-Apache-2.0 . Converts to Apache 2.0 after two years.

DEPLOYMENT SIGNALReady to run

YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE

PostgreSQL + Redis + Snipara

DocsAgent

Start with docker compose up and keep the full project context loop close to the work.

01 / QUICKSTART

Up and running in three steps.

Choose the deployment shape that fits your environment, then connect the AI client your team already uses.

01

Request the deployment package

Get the current self-hosted package, deployment checklist, and environment-specific setup guidance from our team.

02

Create your project and API key

Run the setup script against your PostgreSQL instance to create the project and generate the credentials your agent will use.

export DATABASE_URL=postgresql://snipara:snipara@localhost:5433/snipara
bash scripts/setup.sh
03

Connect the AI client you already use

Add the MCP configuration produced by setup to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or another compatible client.

02 / FULL ACCESS

All features unlocked. No expiry.

Every self-hosted deployment includes the full Snipara feature set from day one: semantic search, agent memory, multi-agent swarms, shared context, and more. There is no trial window, feature expiry, or license key required.

Full feature access from day one.

03 / ACCESS MODEL

Feature matrix.

Every self-hosted capability is available indefinitely. You run the software on your infrastructure and cover only the infrastructure cost.

04 / WHY SELF-HOST

A boundary your team can reason about.

Self-hosting is for teams that need their project intelligence to stay close to their systems, policies, and operating model.

Data sovereignty

Keep documentation and embeddings inside your infrastructure. Your project data stays within the network you control.

Compliance-ready foundation

Use on-premises deployment as a foundation for HIPAA, SOC 2, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, and other internal controls.

Air-gapped support

Deploy on networks without internet access. There is no phone-home dependency or online license server.

Your infrastructure

Integrate with PostgreSQL, Redis, SSO, and monitoring tools already approved by your organization.

Source-available

Read, modify, and contribute to the server code. FSL-1.1 converts to Apache 2.0 after two years.

Docker-ready

Start with Docker Compose and move to the deployment model that fits your security and scale requirements.

05 / ENTERPRISE SUPPORT

Run it yourself. Get help when you need it.

The server is free to run. Support plans provide deployment help, priority response times, and an experienced partner for the infrastructure decisions around it.

Contact sales

Enterprise support starts at $2,000/month and includes deployment assistance plus professional support.

White-glove deployment

Hands-on setup and configuration support for your production environment.

24-hour support SLA

Email and Slack support with a guaranteed response time for critical issues.

Quarterly updates

Feature updates and security patches delivered with migration guidance.

Architecture reviews

Advice on scaling, performance tuning, and infrastructure optimization.

Unlimited scale

No limits on projects, users, or team size. Scale with your organization.

Priority security patches

Critical patches within 48 hours, with high-priority issues handled within seven days.

06 / INFRASTRUCTURE

Size the system around your work.

Start small for evaluation, then separate the application, database, and cache tiers when the workload requires it.

07 / DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS

Choose the shape that fits.

Simple

Docker Compose

The fastest path for a single-server deployment.

  • Quick setup under 10 minutes
  • Included in the repository

Tradeoff: Limited horizontal scalability

Complex

Kubernetes

A strong fit for teams that already operate Kubernetes.

  • Auto-scaling
  • High availability
  • Multi-region support

Tradeoff: Requires Kubernetes expertise

Easy

PaaS

Use Render, Fly.io, or a similar managed platform.

  • Managed infrastructure
  • Easy scaling
  • Built-in monitoring

Tradeoff: Higher cost per query

Advanced

Custom cloud

Bring Snipara into your existing AWS, GCP, or Azure architecture.

  • Full control
  • Existing infrastructure integration
  • Cost optimization

Tradeoff: Requires a DevOps team

08 / HOSTED OR SELF-HOSTED

09 / FAQ

Questions before you deploy.

Is self-hosting really free?+

Yes. All features are unlocked permanently. The self-hosted software is free to run; you only cover the infrastructure costs. Support and enterprise services are optional.

Are any features time-limited?+

No. The full feature set remains available indefinitely, with no trial window, feature expiry, or license key required.

Does the server phone home?+

No. A self-hosted deployment does not phone home or depend on an online licensing service, making it suitable for air-gapped and high-security environments.

What license is the code under?+

The server uses the Functional Source License 1.1, FSL-1.1-Apache-2.0. You can use, modify, and deploy it within your organization. The license converts to Apache 2.0 after two years.

Can I mix hosted and self-hosted?+

Yes. Teams can use hosted Snipara for development and self-hosted Snipara for production environments with stricter compliance requirements.

Do I need enterprise support?+

No. The self-hosted package includes the materials needed to run Snipara. Support is optional for teams that want hands-on deployment, priority SLAs, or architecture guidance.

Can I contribute to the project?+

For now, contributions and feature proposals are handled through private customer and partner channels.
