SUPPORT.md
Go Micro is free and open source. There are two ways to get help: the community, and commercial support.
Community support is best-effort, from maintainers and contributors, with no response-time guarantees.
If you're running Go Micro in production — or building agents and services on it and want a hand — paid support and consulting are available directly from the maintainer. This is what keeps the project maintained.
| Tier | For | What you get | How |
|---|---|---|---|
| Community | Everyone | Docs, examples, issues — best-effort | Free |
| Sponsor | Individuals & companies who rely on Go Micro | Back ongoing development; your name/logo in the README and on the site; a voice in priorities | GitHub Sponsors |
| Support | Teams running Go Micro in production | Priority responses, a direct line to the maintainer, prioritized bug fixes, upgrade & integration help | Open a request |
| Consulting | Teams building on Go Micro | Hands-on integration, architecture & agent-design review, training & onboarding, sponsored features | Open a request |
Recurring amounts are set on the Sponsors page; support and consulting are scoped and quoted per engagement.
Open a Commercial Support / Consulting request — tell us what you're building, what you need, and your timeline, and we'll follow up. For anything you'd rather not discuss in public, become a sponsor and message privately.
