License and activation, offline and one-time

A tendre.red license is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and it is verified entirely offline once activated.

Buying a license

From the Unlock everything screen inside the app, or directly at tendre.red/checkout, a license unlocks consistent characters (a trained LoRA identity reused across scenes) and cloud generation, and comes with 200 free cloud credits, about 100 five-second videos, as a welcome gift. Local image and video generation on your own GPU stay free, with or without a license.

Activating on desktop

After purchase you receive a .tendrelic license file. On the Unlock everything screen, use Import my license (.tendrelic) to pick the file. Activation binds the license to that machine; after this one check-in, tendre.red verifies it fully offline.

Activating on mobile

Activation usually comes back on its own: finish checkout on your phone and tap Activate on the confirmation page. If that does not happen, use I have an activation link to paste it by hand, or fall back to importing the license file the same way as on desktop.

One machine per license

Each license activates on a single machine at a time. Reinstalling tendre.red on the same computer keeps the same activation, so updating the app or resetting Windows will not cost you your license. Trying to activate a second machine returns a "license already active" error.

Moving to a new machine

If you upgrade your PC or need to move your license to different hardware, contact support from the Contact page with your order details. Support can release the old activation so you can activate on the new machine, a manual step that keeps one license on one computer at a time.
