FAQs

What licensing options does AMPL offer?

AMPL provides a variety of licensing options to suit different needs. For commercial users, we offer flexible licensing that starts with a standard named-user license and can scale to highly customized enterprise solutions. Our free Community Edition provides unrestricted access to AMPL with open-source solvers. In academia, we offer academic extensions to the Community Edition, specialized teaching bundles, and a New Graduates Program to support students transitioning to professional use. Short-term supported trials and custom pricing for high-volume users are also available.

How does AMPL’s licensing work?

AMPL offers flexible licensing options based on deployment type, user access, and solver usage. You can choose between static (machine-bound) or cloud-based licenses, with either named-user or session-based access. All licenses include unlimited variables and constraints, along with access to open-source solvers. Commercial solvers require a separate license, and licensing starts with a specified number of CPU cores, with options to customize as needed.

Do you offer a free version of AMPL?

Yes! Our AMPL Community Edition is a free option for learning and prototyping, with access to open-source solvers.
