VECTOR FEED

License & Activation

VECTOR FEED is a commercial product. Upon purchase, a license key is delivered via email from VCB-AI. This key must be activated before the software can be used. For licensing inquiries: vector@vcb-ai.online.

License Key Activation Flow

Email Delivery

License keys are sent to the email address provided at checkout. Each email contains:

  • Your unique license key (e.g., VF-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX)
  • Links to download the licensed version
  • Activation instructions

If you do not receive your license key within 15 minutes of purchase, check your spam/promotions folder or contact VCB-AI support.

Activation Methods

Environment Variable

Set the VECTOR_FEED_LICENSE environment variable before running any VECTOR FEED commands:

export VECTOR_FEED_LICENSE=VF-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
vector-feed -p document.pdf

This method is preferred for CI/CD pipelines, Docker containers, and server deployments.

Configuration File

Write the license key to the configuration file at ~/.vector_feed/config.toml:

[license]
key = "VF-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

Alternatively, place a .vector_feed_license file in the working directory containing only the license key:

VF-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

Validation

The license is validated at startup. If the key is missing, expired, or invalid, VECTOR FEED will exit with an error message indicating the issue. For volume licensing or enterprise deployments, contact VCB-AI at vector@vcb-ai.online for floating or site-wide license options.
