Turn every device you ship into a recurring revenue stream
Zentitle brings software-style monetization to hardware and IoT — feature upgrades, connected cloud services, and usage-based models, all controlled through licensing your device already trusts.
What Hardware Licensing Unlocks
Secure new, untapped revenue streams
Monetize your hardware and IoT products by turning features on and off through subscriptions and purchases — and by controlling access to the additional cloud-based services your hardware talks to.
Feature Control & Upsells
Turn features on or off through subscriptions and purchases — securing untapped revenue streams from hardware you already ship.
Connected Cloud Services
Sell and control access to the cloud services your hardware talks to — storage, external processing, and more — adding value your customers will pay for.
Instant Upgrade Paths
Sell higher-tier configurations by turning on new features or limits in a device's internal software. Upgrades become instant, with no new hardware required.
Connection Permission Control
Control exactly what your hardware can connect to in the field — and what's permitted to connect to it — all governed through licensing.
Business Models
Bring every software business model to hardware
All kinds of business models normally associated with software are now available for your hardware and IoT products.
Who It's For
Built for every kind of connected hardware
IoT, industrial hardware, electronics manufacturers, consumer electronics, communications equipment, and dedicated servers — all monetized using Zentitle.
Dark Sites
Even fully air-gapped hardware can be licensed
