**Here's the TL;DR:**
To keep Open WebUI thriving for the long term, weve introduced a **lightweight branding protection clause** that helps us sustain the project while ensuring **every user** continues to benefit from rapid innovation **without resorting to gated features or paywalled functionality**. As a small, independent team building mission-critical AI tooling, we rely on fair attribution to support ongoing development, security, and quality, all without restricting real users, contributors, or businesses who use Open WebUI responsibly.
To keep Open WebUI thriving for the long term, weve introduced a **lightweight branding protection clause** that helps us sustain the project while ensuring **every user** continues to benefit from rapid innovation **without resorting to gated features or paywalled functionality**. Branding requirements only apply to **larger deployments (50+ users)**. Deployments with 50 or fewer users may fully rebrand if they choose.
As a small, independent team building mission-critical AI tooling, we rely on fair attribution to **support ongoing development, security, and quality**, all without restricting real users, contributors, or businesses who use Open WebUI responsibly.
And for those who prefer a fully permissive path, **[anyone can still fork from v0.6.5 with zero restrictions and build from there however they choose](https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/blob/main/LICENSE_HISTORY)**. Its a simple, balanced step that protects the ecosystem, strengthens the project, and **ensures we can sustain our mission of empowering everyone**.
