Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Lopo Studio closed source?

Lopo Studio is closed source so we can sustainably maintain the desktop app, fund ongoing development, and offer a straightforward one-time license instead of requiring a subscription. We still build it local-first: your database connections, queries, and workspace data remain on your machine. Lopo Studio does not require a cloud account to use your databases.

Does Lopo Studio require a subscription?

No. The Founder License is a one-time purchase. One payment gives you lifetime access and all future product updates.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If Lopo Studio is not right for you, contact support within 14 days of purchase for a refund. A refunded license is no longer eligible for future activations, updates, or support.

What does the Founder License include?

The Founder License grants you complete access to Lopo Studio for Windows. One payment gives you lifetime usage rights and all future software updates, engine optimizations, and bug fixes without any recurring fees.

Are all future updates included?

Yes. All future product updates and bug fixes for the Lopo Studio desktop client are included with your one-time purchase. You will never be asked to pay an annual renewal or upgrade fee.

Can I use my license on multiple Windows PCs?

Yes. Your personal Founder License allows you to install and use Lopo Studio on your personal desktop and laptop computers.

Is an account required to use Lopo Studio?

No. No account is required for local SQL work. Day-to-day database querying, table editing, and local database connections run completely locally and offline without an internet connection or cloud login.
