Licensing & open source.
DataRig Lite is free proprietary software. The engines it runs are unmodified open-source projects, each under its own license.
DataRig Lite
DataRig Lite is free to download and use, including for commercial work, under the DataRig Terms of Use. The DataRig application — its agents, review gates, and user interface — remains the property of ExaScale and may not be resold, sublicensed, or redistributed without written permission.
Your pipelines, dbt models, SQL, dashboards, and Iceberg tables are yours. They are written in open formats, and no license is required to keep using them outside DataRig.
