As game productions reach unprecedented scale, the way studios structure their tools, teams, and pipelines must evolve with them. Today, we’re excited to introduce the Enterprise Team Bundle (ETB) for articy:draft X — a new project-based tier created specifically for large studios developing high-scale production games.

The Enterprise Team Bundle is designed for industry leaders ensuring articy:draft X scales seamlessly to meet the demands of the most ambitious productions.

At the same time, our existing seat-based licensing model remains unchanged for the vast majority of our customers, ensuring continuity and flexibility for small and mid-sized teams.

Why the Enterprise Team Bundle exists

Large productions operate differently.

They involve hundreds of contributors, complex proprietary pipelines, strict security requirements, and evolving team sizes over multi-year development cycles. The Enterprise Team Bundle aligns articy:draft X with these realities — providing unlimited access, direct engineering support, and infrastructure built for scale.

The result:
less friction, faster integration, and complete confidence that your narrative pipeline will scale with your production.

Key benefits for enterprise studios

Unlimited scalability without licensing friction

The Enterprise Team Bundle removes traditional seat limitations entirely.

  • Unlimited licenses across your entire project
  • Floating licenses included as standard, adapting to changing team sizes
  • No need to plan, predict, or manage seat allocation as your team grows

This ensures every writer, designer, localization manager, voice-over artist, producer and developer can access articy:draft X when they need it.

Direct access to our developers and enterprise-level support

Enterprise customers work directly with the people who build articy:draft.

  • Private Slack channel with our development team
  • Enterprise level support and technical guidance
  • Consulting for pipeline integration
  • Onboarding and training sessions with our experts
  • 25% discount on custom customizations

This direct collaboration dramatically reduces integration risks and accelerates production readiness.

Built to integrate into your production ecosystem

The Enterprise Team Bundle enables articy:draft X to fully integrate into your studio’s proprietary pipeline.

  • Full access to the articy:draft API
  • Self-hosted or Articy-hosted server options
  • Optional dedicated server
  • Technical consulting to ensure seamless implementation

This allows articy:draft X to function as a true part of your production infrastructure — not a disconnected standalone tool.

Enterprise-grade security and user management

For large organizations, security and identity management are essential.
Enterprise Team Bundle customers gain access to:

  • LDAP user synchronization and authentication
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) and OIDC support

    • These features ensure articy:draft aligns with your internal IT and security standards.

    A business model aligned with enterprise productions

    The Enterprise Team Bundle is designed around how large games are actually funded and developed.
    It applies to new projects with production budgets exceeding €10 million. While any team can apply for the Enterprise Team Bundle, projects with a production budget above €10 million are required to use this tier. Projects that start with a lower budget and exceed €10 million during production will also have to be moved to the Enterprise Team Bundle. To make that transition fair and straightforward, any license fees already spent on the same project with a different Team Bundle will be deducted from the Enterprise Team Bundle price

    Pricing:

    • 0.4% of the project budget (minimum €40,000)
    • Project-based license, valid for up to 3 years of development
    • One platform included (e.g., PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch)
    • Additional platforms: 0.15% per platform
    • One DLC included within 12 months
    • Free Bugfixes and content patches included. (A Multi-User license will be required for editing when the Enterprise Team Bundle expires)

      • This structure ensures licensing scales fairly with the scope and success of your project — while removing operational constraints during development.

      Built for the next generation of enterprise productions

      The Enterprise Team Bundle represents the next evolution of articy:draft X — aligning our platform with the needs of the world’s most ambitious studios.
      By combining:

    • Unlimited scalability
    • Deep pipeline integration
    • Enterprise-grade infrastructure
    • Direct developer collaboration

      • …the Enterprise Team Bundle ensures articy:draft X continues to serve as the narrative backbone of the industry’s largest productions.
