SourceGuardian Decoder Pricing Guide

SourceGuardian protected PHP files can be difficult to maintain when the original source is missing, a vendor is unavailable, or a project changes hands. This guide is written for buyers comparing cost before a recovery project. It avoids implementation details and focuses on practical recovery planning.

When this helps

This workflow is useful when you need to budget for one file, a plugin folder, or a larger protected PHP codebase. It is also helpful during audits, hosting moves, emergency fixes, client handoffs, and long-term maintenance planning.

What to prepare

Before uploading files, confirm that you own the software or have permission to recover it. Keep a copy of the original package, note why source recovery is needed, and choose a small sample file for the first preview. If the project has many files, place the authorized PHP files into a ZIP archive so the order stays organized.

What the online decoder gives you

The decoder provides a browser-based upload flow, automatic encoder tagging, progress tracking, trial previews, and downloadable recovered PHP. The goal is simple: give your team readable source files that can be reviewed, documented, tested, and maintained.

Why teams use this

Source recovery is often part of a larger business task. A developer may need to patch an abandoned plugin. An agency may need to estimate a rescue project. A security team may need readable PHP before approving a deployment. A business owner may need continuity after losing contact with the original vendor.

Expected outcome

transparent credits and manual review or refund choices make project cost easier to forecast. After decoding, review the output in a non-production environment, compare behavior against the running application, and keep the recovered files with your project documentation.
