Buy it once. Own it forever.

Hurricane has been a one-time purchase since 2003, long before subscriptions became the default, and it is staying that way. No recurring bill, no expiry, no renewal email you forgot to cancel.

What a one-time license means for you:

  • No recurring bill. Pay once, use it for as long as you like.
  • Free updates. Every new version, including AutoCAD 2026 support, is free to existing users.
  • It keeps working. Your license doesn't expire and stop opening if you skip a renewal.
  • It moves with you. Your KEY lasts for the life of the Windows username, PC name or USB stick it was bought for. New PC? Same username or PC name, same KEY. How to move to a new PC.
  • Expense it and move on. One charge on a card: no procurement cycle, no annual renewal to defend.
  • No activation server. Your license is a key file on your PC, network or USB stick. There is no online license check to fail.

Why I do it this way

Hurricane is built and supported by one person: me. I have looked after the same product since 2003, and I would rather earn 20-year customers with a tool that pays for itself the first time you use it than bill you every month. A batch job that turns a 4-hour task into 30 minutes covers the price almost at once. After that, it is just time back in your day.

The math

Hurricane costs less than a single afternoon of a drafter's billable time. Many subscription tools cost that much every year. Run the numbers on your own repetitive work: plotting, title-block updates, renaming. The payback is usually measured in days, not months.

A perpetual license, in a rented-software world

You shouldn't have to rent the ability to automate your own work. Hurricane is yours: install it, use it, update it free, and keep it running for as long as it's useful. For many customers, that has been well over a decade.

Pay once, and the renewal email never comes.
