Pro
Free, Starter and Pro
The engine, every command of it and the country sheets of each release are free. Starter and Pro add sheets rebuilt every month, a commercial licence, email support and gridpin-pro, the tools for an address database. The two differ only in countries: Starter is one country of your choice, Pro is all of them.
