It says that each is a single license and you can install on 2 computers. You can only use 1 at a time, not more, as that is what u bought. It is laid out in the license.
Three comments:
First, this would be killer as a plug-in extension for Apple’s Photos app. Please add that functionality.
Secondly, bravo. Combining and simplifying these apps is the right approach.
Lastly, I paid for the photo upgrade plan for a second year, well into 2024, but it looks like upgrades for Topaz Photo AI extend only through 2023 and are excluded from my existing upgrade plan. If the goal of this product is to eventually replace the other three (meaning that the other three receive less new features and attention as time goes on), it seems silly to have purchased a longer-term upgrade plan for them and will make me think twice about paying for long-term product upgrades in the future when the main product may change. I think the best solution is for Topaz to integrate this into users’ existing photo upgrade plans to avoid jilting them.

Please read the FAQ in the first post.
Is the VEAI license the same so people who are running multiple instances on high-end hardware to get around the lack of GPU utilisation are technically in breach of the license? Kinda problematic if so.
You really need to ask support.
So Gigapixel is dead ? or Topaz Labs will be support Gigapixel and Photo AI ?
I would suggest it is not dead as you need to have up to date copies in order to run Photo AI, as noted in the first post in this thread.
What is your point?

This looks really promissing !
Good work, good idea.
PS:
I appreciate how you accompany your customers.
Your staff and your company are an idol, how a business relationship should look like.
I think by dead they mean getting future improvements, given Gigapixel supports some things PhotoAI does not and is much easier/faster/reliable to use if you only need the functionality of Gigapixel.
I still mostly use Gigapixel as the majority of the time it does as good or a better job. You learn what models are better for different sources and its clear what is going on. Autopilot while a great idea, makes everything a lot harder when it doesn’t work. I still find Gigapixel the majority of the time is better at denoising than PhotoAIs denoise model.
Its only when you need to change focus on the image that PhotoAI really shines as Sharpen and Gigapixel rarely seem to give good results when used back to back.
it does do a good job of noise reduction not tried it on anything with fine detail yet but i am a little sad that it wont load saved files from studio 2 if you save a PS file you can still open it in LR something for the future? it would mean you dont need to have somany copies of the same image
