Getting started

Activate your license

Paste your Kaizen OCR license key to unlock unlimited use and the Searchable PDF feature.

What licensing unlocks

  • Unlimited operations — the Free tier's 7-ops-per-feature cap is lifted.
  • Searchable PDF — Azure Document Intelligence integration becomes available (you still bring your own Azure key).
  • Priority email support from the team.

Where to buy

Licenses are sold on the pricing page. You'll receive your license key by email within a few minutes of purchase — keep that email safe, as the key is what activates the app.

Activating

  1. Open Kaizen OCR.
  2. Click the Upgrade banner on the dashboard (or go to Settings → Licensing).
  3. Paste the license key from your email into the License key field.
  4. Click Activate. The app checks the key against our licensing service (one-time online check required).
  5. Once activated, you'll see a green PRO (or PREMIUM) badge on the dashboard.
Device binding. Activation ties the license to your Windows user account. You can deactivate on one machine and re-activate on another whenever you want — there's no license-server drama.

Troubleshooting activation

“Key is invalid”

Double-check you copied the whole key from the email (they're long and sometimes get truncated in mail clients). Keys contain letters and digits but no spaces — remove any stray whitespace.

“Unable to reach licensing service”

Activation needs a one-time internet connection to https://azfnlic.azurewebsites.net. If you're on a corporate network, ask IT to whitelist that domain, or activate from a home connection and the app will remember.

“Activation limit reached”

This means the key is already in use on another device. Deactivate from the other device (Settings → Licensing → Deactivate) or email [email protected] to reset the device binding.
