Size-Limited Licence
Build for Free.
Getting started couldn't be easier.
Every installation of gurobipy—whether installed with pip or conda—includes a free size-limited license, so you can build and test models immediately. It's intended for non-production use, including learning, prototyping, evaluating, and exploring mathematical optimization with Gurobi.
Models are limited to 2,000 variables and 2,000 linear constraints (or 200 variables for models with quadratic terms).
For non-commercial use only.

Academic License
Full-featured, with no model size limits.
Free for faculty, staff, and students at degree-granting institutions. Connect from your institution's network to activate.
Commercial Free Trial
Evaluate Gurobi on your own models with a full-featured free trial
No model size limits, with direct support from our Expert Team. The best way to test Gurobi against real problems at real scale before you commit.
Commercial Licences
Commercial licenses are available through a range of licensing options, with annual subscription plans designed to meet different deployment and usage requirements.
The right licensing option depends on your deployment environment, computational requirements, concurrency needs, and the number of authorized users. Our team will help you choose the license that best fits your technical and business requirements.
Named-User License
Tied to one person on one machine. Right for a solo developer or analyst running models locally.
Single-Machine License
Tied to a machine, not a person. Designed for servers running automated optimization jobs.
Single-Use License
Allows one concurrent optimization solve on one machine at a time. Best suited for single-machine deployments with limited concurrency requirements.
Floating License
A central Token Server manages shared concurrent access across networked machines. Ideal for teams and applications that share optimization resources.
Compute Server License
Runs optimization jobs on dedicated servers with built-in load balancing and queuing. Designed for teams and applications running many optimization jobs simultaneously, either on-premises or in the cloud.
Web License Service (WLS)
Cloud-managed licensing with no Token Server to install or maintain. Ideal for cloud-native and containerized deployments, including Docker and Kubernetes.
Gurobi Instant Cloud
A fully managed cloud service that runs Gurobi on AWS or Azure. No infrastructure to deploy or maintain; just connect with a cloud license file and Gurobi manages the compute resources for you.
