=== Assistant: Here’s the easy way to describe this: === Here’s the easy way to describe this: ===== The page at openlorelicense.com is a license generator for the Open Lore License (OLL) – a hybrid license that lets small teams use a technology for free up to a revenue cap, and only asks for a commercial license once they’re clearly successful. It bakes in revenue tiers, anti-monopoly rules, and ethical-use language, all wrapped in a one-click tool. ollpage ===== ===== On the page you’ll see a simple form with a few fields: ollpage ===== * Product / Project Name – what you’re licensing (e.g. “Nova AI Trading Engine”) * Core Technology Name – the underlying tech (e.g. “LoreTokens”) * Ecosystem Name – your wider stack (“LoreTokens Ecosystem”) * Includes / Components – SAIQL, SDKs, reference impls, etc. * Licensor / Rights Holder – you or your company * Patent / Application Reference – your patent number or “Patent pending” * Currency – USD / EUR / etc. * Free Use Cap – revenue below this is totally free (defaults to $6M) * Grace Cap – revenue limit where you still run free while negotiating (defaults to $10M) * Grace Period – how many months you give people to sort a commercial deal * BigCo Revenue – the “large company” threshold where anti-monopoly rules kick in (defaults to $1B) * Contact Block – where people should email you to talk licensing Once those are filled in, you just click: * “Generate License” – builds a full legal-style OLL text in the box below * “Copy to Clipboard” – to paste straight into your repo as LICENSE * “Download as .txt” – to save and commit directly The license text is generated live as you type, so you can tweak caps and wording and instantly see the updated legalese. ollpage There’s also a clear note that this is a convenience tool, not legal advice, and that you should have a lawyer review the final license if you’re doing serious commercial work. ollpage ===== Traditional licenses are: ===== * MIT / BSD / Apache – free for everyone, forever, no revenue awareness, no anti-monopoly teeth. * GPL-style – focused on source-sharing and copyleft, not on revenue tiers or market power. The OLL builder lets you ship something different: # Free-tier by design - You set the revenue cap where use is totally free (e.g. $6M). Below that, anyone can build on your tech with no fees. # Grace zone for growing companies - Between your free cap and grace cap (e.g. $6–10M), they can keep using it while they talk to you about a commercial license. # Paid only when they’re clearly successful - Above the grace cap, a commercial license is required—by that point they’re not a fragile startup anymore. # Anti-monopoly guardrails - You can set a BigCo threshold (e.g. $1B) where extra rules apply: no exclusive licenses, no shell companies to dodge caps, no using your tech to lock out competitors. So the pitch to other developers is: >
