# Is SeaSketch Free?

SeaSketch is free for educational and non-profit use. Please read our [Terms of Use](https://next.seasket.ch/terms-of-use) and[ License Agreement](https://github.com/seasketch/next/blob/master/LICENSE). In short, you will find that by following our [user](https://docs.seasketch.org) and [developer](https://github.com/seasketch/geoprocessing/wiki) documentation, you can do a lot on your own to develop your own SeaSketch project.&#x20;

You might find that, eventually, you would like help configuring your SeaSketch application, developing and implementing surveys or facilitating meetings with SeaSketch. If you are interested in exploring how The McClintock Lab at UCSB can be contracted to assist with these tasks, contact [Will McClintock](mailto:will@ucsb.edu) at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis, University of California Santa Barbara.&#x20;
