# Editions

> IMP ships in two editions: Community Edition (CE) and Enterprise Edition (EE). This page explains what each includes and how to activate EE.

export const EditionBadge = ({edition}) => <Tooltip tip={edition === "ee" ? "Requires an Enterprise Edition license." : "Available in the Community Edition."}>
    <span style={{
  fontFamily: "RobotoMono, monospace",
  fontSize: "12px",
  textTransform: "uppercase",
  letterSpacing: "0.04em",
  border: "1px solid var(--imp-hair-light)",
  padding: "2px 8px"
}}>
      {edition === "ee" ? "Enterprise" : "Community"}
    </span>
  </Tooltip>;

IMP is open-core. The Community Edition is source-available and covers the full platform — chat, building, administration, and the API. The Enterprise Edition adds capabilities gated behind a license flag; it is activated with a single environment variable.

<Note>
  All edition boundaries documented here are verified against `backend/ee/entitlements.ts`, which is the authoritative source of truth. The license check at runtime enables every EE flag simultaneously when a valid `EXULU_ENTERPRISE_LICENSE` key is present.

## Activating Enterprise Edition

Set the following environment variable on your IMP backend before starting the server:

```bash theme={null}
EXULU_ENTERPRISE_LICENSE=EXULU_EE_your_license_key_here
```

Once the server starts with a valid key, all EE flags are enabled. There is no per-feature activation — it is all or nothing.

<Tip>
  To verify which flags are active on a running deployment, check the server startup logs or call the `/health` endpoint (behavior varies by deployment version).

## Getting a license

Contact Exulu at [exulu.com/contact](https://exulu.com/contact) to request an Enterprise license. Licenses are per deployment; the key must match the environment it is issued for.
