KEYZY is a cloud‑based software licensing manager that lets developers generate, deliver, track and manage licenses for their applications without hosting their own servers. It supports multiple licensing models (such as perpetual and subscription), provides a dashboard and APIs for organizing products, SKUs and dealers, and includes client libraries for integrating license activation and validation into software. The service runs on remote servers so vendors don’t have to maintain infrastructure, and it handles license distribution and enforcement for both online and offline use cases.

The KEYZY March 2026 release adds new Auto-Refill capability to the dashboard to help maintain consistent license availability. When the number of unused licenses for a SKU falls below 50, the system automatically generates and adds 100 new licenses to the pool. This helps avoid interruptions caused by depleted stock and supports uninterrupted sales activity without requiring manual intervention from administrators.

KEYZY is licensed annually, with a renewal required each year to maintain access. It offers three subscription tiers - Single, Studio, and Business - each providing different limits on products, SKUs, dealers, and license counts to suit varying business needs. See our KEYZY licensing page for full details.

The Pine BI Excel Add-In facilitates the rapid generation of sophisticated and interactive Excel charts, enabling the transformation of standard workbooks into engaging dashboards that improve data visualization. These easily shareable visuals can also be integrated into Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, improving the creation of impactful reports and presentations across various business applications.

The Pine BI Excel Add-In v2.1 update improves waterfall chart functionality by introducing rebuilt formulas that support a cleaner and more consistent data structure. Instead of relying on automatically calculated totals that required blank fields, developers can now explicitly define which values act as totals within the dataset. This approach simplifies data preparation, removes the need for automatic final totals, and makes chart calculations more transparent and predictable. As a result, developers can create and maintain waterfall visualizations more efficiently, particularly when working with complex financial or analytical models.
