FAQ

Frequently asked questions about SC Sentinel and MCP licensing

Is there a free tier?

Yes. Every account starts on the free hello tier — the hello and health endpoints respond without a license, so you can wire up your assistant and confirm the integration before paying for anything.

What does an activated license unlock?

A license unlocks premium security context: the full rule library, custom rule packs, team-scoped policy overrides, and the audit log. The free tier returns only the hello and health responses.

How does seat-based licensing work?

Licenses are issued per seat and tied to your account. A solo developer needs one seat; a team gets seats for its active users and manages them from the SC Sentinel dashboard.

Which AI assistants are supported?

Any MCP-compatible client. We provide setup guides for Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and Windsurf — you point the assistant at one HTTPS endpoint and the same license works across all of them.

Can I upgrade, downgrade, or cancel?

Yes, at any time from your billing settings. Changes take effect immediately and we prorate the difference; cancelling stops the renewal at the end of the current period.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The free hello tier requires no payment details. You only add a card when you activate a paid license.
