License Activation

Your license key is sent by email after purchase. It looks like: sk_live_a3f29c8b45d6e7f1...

Activating ARIA

1. Open ARIA. The activation screen appears on first launch.
2. Paste your license key and click Activate.
3. ARIA connects to our server to verify the key and your hardware fingerprint.
4. Once verified, a device JWT is stored securely using Windows DPAPI.
5. You will not need to enter the key again on this machine.

Device limits

Each license allows activation on a limited number of machines (Starter: 1 device, Pro: 2 devices). To activate a new machine, go to Devices in your dashboard and revoke an existing device first.

Offline grace period

ARIA works offline for up to 7 days. Every 4 hours it silently validates your license in the background. After 7 days offline, paid features are paused until connectivity is restored.
