Licensing that never phones home
Your license is a signed file checked on your own machine. Requesting it, activating it and using it need no internet connection, and the Launcher tells you the exact reason if a license is not valid.
Launcher
One place to open, license and update every Paradigm Geospatial app.
The Launcher is where everything starts: a tile for each app, your recent and pinned projects, offline license activation, and verified updates. It is free and is installed with the apps.
Free with every installation
Offline license activation
Verified installers only
Standouts
Why Launcher.
Verified
No unverified installer runs
Before an update installs, the Launcher checks its signature, its exact size and SHA-256 checksum, and its code-signing publisher, product name and version.
Clear app states
Each tile says whether an app is ready, running or locked by your license, and a failure offers a retry instead of an empty screen.
Overview
Everything starts here.
Open a project and the Launcher hands it to the right app. Activate your license once and every app it covers is ready.
Your apps and projects
A tile for each app with its state, and your recent and pinned projects alongside, each opening in the app you last used for it.
Licensing without a server
Request a license from the Launcher, paste in the license you receive, and activate. No internet connection is needed to check it.
Updates you can trust
Every update is checked for its signature, size, checksum and publisher before anything installs.
Features
What Launcher does.
A tile for every app
Each tile shows whether an app is ready, locked by your license or already running.
- Ready, running and locked states
- A retry, not a blank grid, if something fails
Recent and pinned projects
Projects show their details, including the coordinate system, and open in the app you last used for them.
- Recent and pinned projects
- Coordinate system at a glance
Request, paste, activate
Choose Request a License, send us the request, then paste the license you receive and click Activate. The license is checked on your machine, and its status explains exactly why if something is wrong.
- Works offline once activated
- One license can cover several apps
- Exact status reasons
Verified installers only
Before installing an update, the Launcher verifies its signature, exact size and SHA-256 checksum, and the installer's code-signing publisher, product name and version.
- Signature, size and checksum checks
- Code-signing publisher check
Machine and GPU status
A status panel shows the computer and graphics card the apps will run on, which helps when something needs support.

Questions
About Launcher.
Does the Launcher cost anything?
No. The Launcher is free and is installed with the apps. Your license decides which apps open.
Do I need to be online to use my license?
No. Once activated, your license is checked on your machine.
What if I rename my computer or reinstall Windows?
A license bound to a computer is tied to its name and Windows installation. If either changes, or you move to a new computer, ask us for a replacement license.
