Your operator's poker bot license,
one-time, on tap.
Install in 60 seconds. License auto-applies on first run. The trial unlocks everything for 1 day — no card needed. After that, one payment, no subscription, no auto-renew.
Pick a shell, paste one line.
No SDK. No build step. The installer pulls the matching profile bundle for your room and writes a signed license token to ~/.pokerbot/license.

Three tiers. One payment each.
One license model: operator. No subscriptions, no "enterprise" tier with a phone call attached. Pay once, run it. Pick a tier by the formats you actually play.
NLH cash only. The tier most operators start with — single format, single seat, full engine. 1-day free trial first, no card needed.
- ✓ NLH cash games
- ✓ 1 seat, 1 host machine
- ✓ Auto-update channel
- ✓ Discord-grade support, business hours
NLH + PLO. Adds the Pot-Limit Omaha engine — different equity tables, different opponent profiling. What most multi-room operators end up wanting.
- ✓ NLH cash + PLO
- ✓ 1 seat, 1 host machine
- ✓ Beta channel access
- ✓ Priority queue support
All formats: NLH + PLO + MTT + OFC. Every solver pack we ship, every adapter, every format engine. Dedicated engineer onboarding included.
- ✓ NLH + PLO + MTT + OFC
- ✓ 1 seat, 1 host machine

What's actually in the price.
The engine licence is one line item. To run a profitable seat you need three more — infra, your hours, and the discipline not to chase cheaper kit that ends in a banroll. Here's the honest stack.
One-time. Tier depends on which formats you actually run. Pay once, no monthly fee, no renewal. This number is the only one we control.
Residential proxies, a VPS or two, electricity, internet. Lean setup with one room: ~$10–30. Multi-room, multi-IP, redundant connections: closer to $200. Real recurring cost — plan for it.
Initial install, profile tuning, proxy hygiene, account warm-up: a working week if you're new, a day if you're not. After that, monitoring, restarts and the occasional ban-reroll: a couple hours weekly per seat.
No seat tax, no per-hand fee, no rake split. Once the license token is on disk, the engine answers to you. Updates ride the 2026.x line for free.
The three tiers of poker-bot software, honestly.
| Category | Sticker price | Detection | What you actually get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rule-based Shanky-family, Warbot-family |
$100 – $300 | 15 – 100% ban rate per room | Hand-coded decision trees. Predictable patterns, easy to fingerprint. Math doesn't work even at +bb/100 when the seat dies in three weeks. |
| AI hybrid this product |
$750 – $1,990 one-time | low when proxy / GPS / session-length rules are followed | Neural nets + GTO database + real-time opponent adaptation. Winrate band 10–40 bb/100 depending on pool and discipline. |
| Open-source OpenHoldem, PokerBot++ |
$0 | connectors broken | Last meaningful commits 2018 – 2021. Don't speak to modern client UIs. Fine as a teaching toy, not a seat. |
| Cracked commercial "free" torrent of paid bots |
$0 sticker | 100% — to your wallet | Almost always shipped with a trojan, keylogger or credential stealer. Real cost = your room balance and any crypto wallet on the same machine. |

Engine walkthrough
Same install path that runs after checkout. Watch it set up, mint the trial token, and hit the first table.
What people running it say.
"Trial installed faster than my coffee brewed. One payment, ran for months, no surprise renewal."
"No phone call, no demo deck. I paid once, I ran it, it worked."
"Bought Master because OFC was the missing one. Engineer onboarding was an actual engineer."
"Per-opponent profiling is the thing nobody else ships. Worth Pro alone."
"Starter to Pro upgrade was painless once I added PLO tables. One-time, both times."

Quick answers.
Is the trial really no-card?
Yes. The installer mints a 1-day local trial token. Day 2 it stops running until you check out — no surprise charge, because you never gave us a card to charge.
One-time really means one-time?
Yes. You pay $750, $1,120 or $1,990 once. No monthly fee, no annual renewal, no auto-billing. The license token sits on your disk and the engine runs until you delete it. Updates on the 2026.x line are included.
What about a profile catalog?
Profiles are bundled with the license at your tier — Starter ships NLH; Pro adds PLO; Master adds MTT and OFC on top. À-la-carte per-room profile editing is exposed in the engine config; no separate purchase needed.
Where does the code live?
The licensed engine itself is closed-source — you get signed binaries that verify against the vendor's release key on first run. Configuration schemas and adapter SDKs ship inside the install bundle.
Anything community-built?
There's a SourceForge community build floating around — older, unsigned, no support. We don't recommend it for production, but you can read what it does before deciding whether the licensed engine is worth the spend.
Refunds?
The trial is the refund window. Charged and it doesn't run? Mail us inside 14 days and we reverse it. Past 14 days, no.
Will my account get banned?
Possible. Operators run this on disposable accounts and burner devices. The license doesn't include a guarantee against detection — buy with that in mind.
