Hi Olivier - we sell the platform as a whole, which includes the modules, plugins and sample applications you see on our website.
We give 1 free license to individuals (commercial included) and 2 free rental licenses to companies - after that, you can buy or rent additional licenses - pricing info: http://fabricengine.com/creation/pricing/ What's nice with this is that people can build their own Creation modules and sell them/give them away - there's no fee required to do this. We are looking at visual workflows, and hope to show something later in the year on that front - in the meantime, you need some python skills to build with Creation.
