Inkling drives the agent you already use; its usage is billed by its maker, as it is today. A license doesn't include an AI subscription. Approvals, the kill switch and every safety feature are always on.
After you pay, you land on a page with your license key, and the key is emailed to you too. Click Open in Inkling there, or open Inkling's hub, go to Settings → License, paste the key and click Activate.
One license works on 2 Macs at once. Moving to a new Mac? On the old one, open Settings → License → Deactivate this Mac, then activate on the new one. If the old Mac is gone, write to aruntemme@gmail.com and we will free up the slot.
Activating needs an internet connection once. After that it keeps working offline, and checks the license again from time to time when it is online.
No. You pay $5 once and keep it, including every update.
