Am I understanding correctly that the enterprise license allows offline scanning, but that it's not possible for the standard tiers?

I'm using one of the other commercial offerings for a side project, and the one we went with was largely chosen based on its capacity to work in dead zones in our service area. This looks like an interesting alternative if it's also able to scan when the internet drops out.

Hi there. All image processing/code decoding is done on-device. An internet connection is required for the initial license check and for usage tracking (see https://strich.io/faq.html#faqDataTypes for details) in the Basic and Professional tiers.

Correct, the enterprise license offers completely offline operation (= zero HTTP requests) as this is something often required for compliance reasons, and can be useful for PWA use cases and no-reception like basements.
