Juno is free and open-source software under Apache 2.0 (see Chapter 17). No commercial license is required to use, deploy, or build on Juno, including in production SaaS products. The project is sustained by the paid services below, all of which are entirely optional. None of them restrict community access to the source code or create a separate “enterprise edition.”
Support contracts¶
Paid support contracts are available for teams that need guaranteed response times, access to maintainer engineering time, and private issue triage.
| Tier | Response SLA | Included | Price guide |
|---|---|---|---|
| Community | Best effort | GitHub issues and Discord; no SLA | Free |
| Standard | 2 business days | Private issue tracker; email support; patch backports | Contact for pricing |
| Priority | 4 business hours | Dedicated Slack channel; architecture reviews; escalation | Contact for pricing |
Support contracts cover the Juno engine only. They do not include support for third-party model weights, GPU drivers, or operator infrastructure.

The maintainers offer time-bounded consulting engagements covering:
Production deployment architecture: on-prem cluster setup, AWS/cloud integration, GPU provisioning (see Chapter 7).
JVM integration: embedding

EU AI Act compliance gap assessment and remediation planning for Juno deployments (see Chapter 19).
Performance tuning for specific hardware configurations and model families (see Chapter 13).
Engagements are scoped, time-boxed, and priced per engagement. All resulting code contributed back to the project is released under Apache 2.0.

What commercial services do not include¶
A separate or proprietary version of the Juno engine.
Additional license rights beyond Apache 2.0 — Apache 2.0 already permits all commercial use without a separate license.
Endorsement of, or liability for, the operator’s production system or compliance posture.
Support for third-party model weights, GGUF providers, or Hugging Face artifacts.
Trademark use by commercial partners¶
Use of the “Juno” project name in marketing materials requires adherence to the trademark policy in Chapter 17. Using “Powered by Juno” or “Built on Juno” is permitted without prior approval when the usage is accurate and does not imply official endorsement beyond that statement.
