Frequently asked

Can I use Element in a commercial product?

Yes. The library is MIT-licensed — free for any use, including commercial. There is no runtime license check, no usage reporting, no attribution requirement beyond the standard MIT notice in the source.

What will Pro add?

Pro is a planned tier with extensions aimed at teams: real-time collaborative editing, advanced data visualization layers, charts, and analytics. Specifics, pricing, and a release date are still being worked out.

Will moving to Pro require code changes?

No. Pro is designed to be additive — drop-in extensions that layer on top of the open-source packages without changing your existing setup.

Can I try it before Pro lands?

Yes. The playground runs the full Community library in your browser with no install. Everything you draw exits as standard GeoJSON.
