Espresso Pro
Espresso Pro
Espresso Free is free forever for personal use and isn’t a demo. Pro is for drawers full of disks and for Espresso as part of your work. One payment, every update, up to three Macs.
Espresso Free has every disk, live updates, the full search syntax, Blends, saved searches, macros, The Shot and two offline disks. Espresso Pro adds what you need once disks pile up in drawers, or once Espresso is part of how you work. Using Espresso at work needs Pro.

Try it free for 14 days
Open Espresso › Settings › Espresso Pro › Try Free for 14 Days…, enter your email and click Send Code. You’ll get a code by email: click the link in it, or paste the code in the same place.
The trial doesn’t need a payment method and ends by itself. Afterwards Espresso goes back to Free and you keep everything you set up. The newsletter is a separate, optional box.
Buying and activating
Buy Espresso Pro… in the same place opens the checkout in your browser. Our reseller handles payment, VAT and invoices. The license key arrives by email, and the page after payment has a one-click Activate in Espresso. You can also paste the key in Settings › Espresso Pro › Activate.
Your Macs
- Up to three Macs of yours at a time. Before you sell or replace a Mac, click Deactivate This Mac… to free its place.
- Offline is fine. Once activated, Pro works without a connection. About once a month Espresso quietly checks the license; if your Mac is offline, nothing changes.
- Lost your key? Use Manage License in Settings, or search your email for the receipt.
- Anything else? Write to support@mokasolutions.dev, also from Help › Contact Support… in Espresso.
Offline disks in Espresso Free
Espresso Free keeps your two most recently connected offline disks searchable. Other disconnected disks stay indexed, marked with a lock in the sidebar (“in the cellar”): nothing is deleted. Connect one and it’s searchable again right away. With Pro, all of them are.
