# Introduction **Aufority** is a modern software licensing service that provides powerful APIs to add an extra layer of licensing to your applications, enhancing security, control, and trackability. Licenses can be managed efficiently while staying connected to your Discord guild, making community-based access and management seamless. Each Discord guild acts as its own tenant, allowing you to operate multiple providers from a single application; perfect for managing separate communities or software products under one roof. With many service providers already using Discord to manage communities, support, and engagement, integrating licensing on the same platform is a natural fit. Aufority is not limited to Discord, though; it also offers a robust REST API for direct integration into your own applications. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
