AC Nio Licensing Options

Updated on December 10th, 2025

Licenses for the AC Nio™ software can be purchased at https://aiphone.cloud in the section for AC Nio Licensing. There are multiple options depending on the size of the deployment, the terms of the license, and whether AC Nio will be hosted on a local PC or AiphoneCloud.

For local deployments, the licenses are defined by how many doors and cameras are supported, how many partitions the deployment can be divided into, what features are supported, and whether the license will last for 1 or 5 years.

If a term other than 1 or 5 years is needed for a local deployment, multiple licenses can be purchased and applied to reach the desired time frame. For example, for a 3-year period, purchase 3 1-year licenses.

 

When AC Nio is deployed as a cloud subscription, a license is required for each door, I/O expander(AC-IOE), and an elevator cab. Action Plans and expanded user count (10,000) are subscription add-ons. AC Nio cloud subscriptions are billed annually.
