Response targets by severity are stated in your quote. Support runs on CET business days. What each tier covers in detail, and how the signed packages are verified, is on the support page.
Hosting provider?
The hosting partner program covers multi-tenant fleets: Priority-level support for your second- and third-line team, plus cPanel/EA4 and distribution-channel upkeep. Unlimited hosted domains.

Ask for a quote
Six questions about your fleet, then whatever else we should know. Only name and email are required.
What if I never subscribe?
Then you run the same software everyone else runs, free under the Apache License 2.0, from the same signed repositories. Running without a subscription is a first-class choice.
Will it break my site?
Transforms are deliberately conservative, and the design falls back to your original content when an optimization step fails. Test on staging, then disable any path, URL pattern, or transform type with one line of config.
One small company: what's the risk?
Smaller than it used to be: mod_pagespeed 2.1 is open source under the Apache License 2.0, and there is no kill switch in the request path. If We-Amp disappeared tomorrow, your deployment keeps running and the code stays yours to build, patch, and fork.

Pricing questions
Is the software really free?
Yes. mod_pagespeed 2.1 is open source under the Apache License 2.0: free to install and run, in development and in production, on any number of servers, with no registration. What We-Amp sells is support; Priority and Enterprise add a private package repository (being set up).
Why is there no price on this page?
Pricing on request: published once agreements with current customers close; early subscribers keep their quoted rate for three years. Ask for a quote and you get a written number for your fleet within three business days.
What does the early-subscriber rate mean?
If you subscribe before prices are published, the rate in your quote holds for three years, whatever the published price turns out to be.
Which tier do I need?
The server band decides most of it: Standard covers up to 5 production servers, Priority up to 25, Enterprise one organization without a limit. Choose Priority or Enterprise when your security team wants the private package repository (being set up). What each tier includes.
What happens after I ask for a quote?
We reply within one business day, send a written quote within three, and schedule the onboarding call within five business days of signing. Response targets by severity are part of the quote.
What happens if my subscription lapses?
Nothing happens to your deployment. The software is yours under the Apache License 2.0: it keeps running, keeps optimizing, and you keep upgrading from the public channels.
I bought an IISpeed or mod_pagespeed 1.x license. What now?
Your license moves to mod_pagespeed 2.1 at no cost and paid terms are honored to expiry. To transfer or renew into a support subscription, use the contact form or write to info@we-amp.com.
Where do the support terms live?
At we-amp.com/licensing/. Subscriptions are governed by those support terms together with the terms of service.
