Plans

Four plans, one rule: what you bring in.

Each plan includes the one before it. All of them run online, nothing to install; any of them can also be deployed on your premises.

01

Trial

Nothing comes in, nothing goes out

Evaluating the capabilities before buying

Free7-day trial, on request

The simulator on predefined content:

  • GPU photometric simulation
  • 13 predefined models: satellites, stations, rocket bodies
  • Predefined sensors and observatories
  • Typical orbits (LEO, MEO, GEO), any date and geometry
  • Phase, 24-hour and spin light curves
  • Flash prediction
  • Analysis preview: the full report on synthetic data, and a diagnostic of your own measurement files

Add-ons

On top of any plan.

On-premises deployment

The same application on your own network, fully offline, for classified or air-gapped environments. Included every year: the first installation and its support, every new version delivered ready to install, the security fixes, the yearly renewal of the licence key, and support by email.

+€6,000 / year with Simulation, +€8,000 / year with Analysis

Custom developments

Models of your spacecraft, readers for your formats, new analyses, integration with your systems — quoted case by case.

FAQ

Licensing, plainly.

How are prices set?
As a yearly subscription per organisation, up to 10 users, excluding VAT. The on-premises option is yearly too: it includes the first installation and its support, every new version delivered ready to install, the security fixes, the yearly renewal of the licence key and support by email. For more than 10 users, or several sites, ask us.
Online or on premises?
Online by default: the hosted service comes with your subscription. For classified data or air-gapped networks, the on-premises add-on deploys any plan on your network; access is then unlocked by a signed licence key checked locally — no licence server, no phone-home.
How do I know which plan I need?
Ask what you bring in. Nothing yet — you want to see what it can do: the Trial. A public university or laboratory: Academic. Your satellite, your sensor, your site or a real orbit: Simulation. Measurements to explain or histories to monitor: Analysis.
Can a feature be added without changing plan?
Yes: single features of a higher plan can be added to a licence.
Can LightCurve be adapted to our needs?
Yes. Additional developments are made on request — your spacecraft models, data formats, analyses or integration — and quoted separately.
Can we try before we buy?
Yes: Trial is a free 7-day trial, opened on request. We show you the capabilities on the predefined models, then prepare a case that matters to you in the plan you are considering.

A 30-minute session on your use case: your orbits, your sensors, your measurements if you have them.
