Branding and the Brand pack
Updated 2026-10-22 · Pharos 1.0.1
Free: the name on the page and the accent colour, on 1 status page, with a “Powered by Pharos” footer credit.
Brand pack (€79, one time): your own logo for light and dark, your favicon, your logo in email, the footer credit removed, and the notification emails editable (subject and text, with tags). It keeps working forever. 1 status page.
Supported (€149 per year): the Brand pack included and kept, email support, and up to 5 status pages. Each page has its own components, subscribers, branding, email and integrations, and users get a role per page.
Commercial licence (from €599 per year): everything in Supported, unlimited status pages, and the AGPL publication duty lifted.
If a yearly key lapses, the branding stays and existing status pages keep running, but you cannot create or reactivate pages beyond one.
SVG uploads are refused on purpose. An SVG can carry script, and this file is served to every visitor of your status page.
Branding is set per page under Appearance → Branding: the name and accent colour, the logos for light and dark, and the favicon, with a live preview of the browser tab, the page header in both themes and the email header. Nothing is uploaded until you press Save branding.
A key is an Ed25519 signature over a small payload, verified locally against the public key
in your .env. No network call is made at activation or afterwards, which means
a Pharos outage cannot break your branding, activation works on a host with no outbound HTTP,
and the licence keeps working whether or not you renew. Renewing buys updates and support,
not permission to run.
