About our toolkits
We sell commercially-licensed developer toolkits for visualizing connections and networks in data.
Our products let developers quickly and easily build powerful and customized data visualization components. These components can then be rolled into existing applications, ready to be deployed anywhere.
Getting a license for our toolkits
We work hard to make the licensing process as fast, smooth and straightforward as possible.
I’m a new customer
To help your developers get started with our products, we offer free 21-day trial licenses. Request a trial account here.
We start the trial with a quick online demo from one of our technical account managers (find your account manager here). They’ll get your developers started quickly and explain the resources available. If you decide to continue, they’ll also walk you through the rest of the licensing process.
I’m an existing customer
All of our customers have a dedicated customer success manager. They can help you with everything from buying additional licenses for new projects, to renewing licenses for existing projects.

Our general licensing terms
Your software license terms depend on your specific requirements, so check your contract for details. You’ll find some of the general terms listed below.
Distribution and developer licenses
Each license is essentially two licenses:
- A support and development license – so your developers can access the software development kit (SDK) and documentation.
- A distribution license – so you can distribute your finished application to your users.
Together, these mean your developers can build their data visualization component and deploy it to your end users, either as a standalone tool or as part of another application.
Subscription licensing
Our KeyLines, ReGraph and KronoGraph licenses are usually sold on a subscription basis. The length of your subscription defines how long you can access the SDK site, download new releases and receive email support for.
A KeyLines, ReGraph or KronoGraph license entitles you to all new versions of that product for the term of the license.
When your subscription ends, so too does your right to distribute our software. At the end of the subscription period, your component will stop working.
Payment terms
Our standard payment terms are 30 days.
The end of your license term
At the end of your subscription term, your component will stop working. You will no longer have access to the SDK site, to new releases or to our email support.
Your Customer Success Manager will contact you before the end of your contract to discuss renewing your license.
Support and maintenance
We pride ourselves on offering high-quality and responsive developer support.
Developer support
We offer high quality and responsive email support for your developers. Our support team, formed of core product developers, answers queries during UK working hours (9am-5pm GMT, Monday to Friday on business days).
Our customers usually include the KeyLines, ReGraph or KronoGraph component in an existing application and then test the entire product before release. For this reason, if there’s an issue with our software, it’s usually discovered well before the product is deployed to a mission-critical/service-affecting environment.
As our products are toolkits, and each deployment is customized to your requirements, we do not offer support to your end users.
Product warranty
As we release new versions of our toolkits at regular intervals through the year, we limit our product warranty periods to 180 days. This is double the typical warranty period for a software application.
In any event, our support team is there to respond promptly to your questions as you use the product and help identify and resolve any bugs in our toolkits in a timely fashion.
Breaking changes
As with any API, we do occasionally need to make breaking changes to our toolkits that could impact your own deployment. These can only happen once a year during a major (i.e. x.0) release. We’ll email you with details and provide full documentation on our SDK.
Security
We build our products with security in mind. They are used by some of the world’s most security-conscious organizations and businesses, including police forces, national governments and global banks.
A secure visualization solution
Our software is designed to be hosted on your own servers inside the corporate firewall. It is totally self-contained. It never ‘phones home’ and does not require an internet connection, or any connection outside your firewall.
With the addition of SSL encryption and HTTPS end-points, it can even be used for extranet or public deployments. If additional transport security is required for data content, this can be implemented by your custom JavaScript controller.
We can talk your developers through some security best practices if required.
About Cambridge Intelligence
KeyLines, ReGraph and KronoGraph are made by us, Cambridge Intelligence. We’re a software company based in Cambridge, UK, and Boston, US.
Our background
Not long ago, hardly anyone could visualize connections in data. It required highly-trained analysts and complex specialist software. Only the most secure organizations, like intelligence agencies, could do it. However, the growing threat of fraud and cyber-attack now makes security everyone’s responsibility.
So, back in 2011, we set out to bring powerful data visualization techniques to a wider audience, to help organizations secure their systems and processes in the real – unclassified – world.
We now have three products: KeyLines, a graph visualization toolkit for JavaScript developers, ReGraph, a graph visualization toolkit for React developers, and KronoGraph, a JavaScript toolkit for timeline visualization.
Our people
We’re a growing team of world-class visualization experts, based in Cambridge, UK, and Boston, US. Meet the team
Our customers
From law enforcement to cyber security and fraud detection, we work with hundreds of organizations around the globe who need to understand connections in data. Every day, thousands of analysts rely on our technology to ‘join the dots’ and reveal hidden threats in their data. Learn about our customers
Our awards
Over the years, we’ve won high profile awards and accolades for our technology and innovation. These include the Queen’s Award for Enterprise, being named a Gartner Cool Vendor, and getting invited to TechUK’s Upscale program.
