Open Source overview
Better Data ships Apache-2.0 packages that form the building blocks of the Commerce Chain Optimization (CCO) platform. You can run them standalone or adopt the hosted stack for SLA, AI intelligence, and compliance reporting.The OSS layers
License
All published OSS listed here is Apache-2.0, including an explicit patent grant — the license tier most enterprises expect for healthcare and pharma procurement review. Release artifacts include SBOM (CycloneDX) generation where configured in CI.npm scopes (at a glance)
Some docs and examples still say
@commerce-gateway/*; prefer @commercegateway/commerce-gateway for new work. See commercegateway.io.Self-host or hosted
Every OSS package is self-hostable. The Better Data hosted platform composes the same contracts with:- Multi-tenant isolation
- Managed verification (verify.betterdata.co), gateway (gateway.betterdata.co), loops (loops.betterdata.co), and app shell (app.betterdata.com)
- Industry Packs and proprietary control-plane services
Where to go next
- Surface contract (C8) — names, URLs, owners, diagram rules
- MCP surfaces — gateway-console, Registry MCP, hosted gateway MCP
