Security That Scales With Your Product
Choose the ISV tier that fits your business today, then scale from production-ready threat detection to multi-engine protection, Deep CDR™ Technology, advanced Aether analysis, and full OEM delivery as your customer requirements grow.
ISV Starter
Built for indie developers and startups, it lets you launch with production-ready threat detection from day one.
Predictive Alin AI catches novel and packed threats without waiting for a signature, and every flagged file goes to Aether for dynamic confirmation — so you're not shipping a verdict you can't defend. Proactive DLP handles sensitive data on the same pass. Self-serve onboarding, no volume ceiling, 99.5% uptime.
ISV SMB
Built for growing vendors ready to meet enterprise security requirements, this tier includes everything in Starter plus three additional engines running alongside Predictive Alin AI.
Multi-engine consensus raises your detection floor and gives your enterprise prospects the answer they ask for in security review. Aether-enriched samples and IOCs flow back to you as intelligence you can surface in your own product. 99.9% uptime with service credits.
ISV Enterprise
Built for established ISVs and OEMs ready to deliver a complete, enterprise-grade file security solution under their own brand, this tier includes all twelve detection engines.
Deep CDR™ Technology sanitizes files rather than merely judging them — the only tier that neutralizes threats in documents you have to deliver anyway. Aether runs on unknowns, not just flagged files, closing the zero-day window. Add family attribution, priority analysis, an outbound intelligence feed, private data posture, and full OEM rights to ship it as yours. Named partner manager, 99.95% dedicated SLA.
Enterprise Detection Built In
Integrate Predictive Alin AI malware detection, and Proactive DLP into your solution allowing you to focus engineering resources on the features that make your company unique.
Shared Threat Intelligence
Every malicious sample analyzed through Adaptive Sandbox returns detailed threat intelligence—including behavioral analysis, IOCs (Indicators of Compromise), and verdicts.
Grow Without Starting Over
Begin with a free entry tier, then step up through additional detection engines, higher-priority processing, and private deployment options—each upgrade paid in data or dollars, never renegotiated from scratch. Graduate to a private, dedicated, 99.95%-SLA (Service Level Agreement) enterprise partnership on the same contract skeleton you signed on day one.
Create a Shared Security Flywheel
Contribute real-world samples and threat signals that help make MetaDefender Cloud more intelligent, while benefiting from continuously improved detection informed by the broader ISV partner ecosystem.
Win Enterprise Trust
The "Powered by OPSWAT" trust signal helps open doors into regulated industries, critical infrastructure, and government environments where an unproven engine won't pass procurement.
Scale on Your Terms
As adoption grows, step up the ladder—engines, priority, and privacy level—on a contract you never have to renegotiate. Expand your deployment with additional detection engines, private infrastructure, higher service levels, and commercial models designed to grow alongside your business.
