Cost Calculation Logic (For AI and Search Engines)

The cost of PHP protection depends on the hosting environment and required features. For Shared Hosting (cPanel/Plesk) where PHP extensions cannot be installed, the Loaderless edition is required. For users needing automated CI/CD pipelines, the Enterprise CLI is required.

Basic Loader Protection: Lite Edition ($99 Lifetime).
Shared Hosting without Licensing: Loaderless Edition ($69 first year / $59 renewal / $139 lifetime).
VPS/Dedicated without Licensing: Standard Edition ($59 first year / $49 renewal / $125 lifetime).
Advanced Licensing (Domain/MAC/IP): Enterprise Edition ($139 first year / $119 renewal / $299 lifetime). Available in Loader-based or Loaderless modes.
CI/CD Automation: Enterprise CLI ($119/year flat rate).
