Find answers to common questions about Seedgrade for DaVinci Resolve
Seedgrade is a professional OpenFX plug-in for DaVinci Resolve that adds advanced color tools, creative presets, and LUT workflows to streamline grading projects.
Seedgrade supports DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.5 and later on macOS. Earlier versions may run but are not officially supported.
Run the installer for your platform and follow the prompts. After installation, restart DaVinci Resolve and look for Seedgrade under the OpenFX list.
The Account panel handles offline activation for your Seedgrade license. To unlock the full version, copy your Unique ID from this panel and visit your Seedgrade.io profile page. After signing in on the website, generate an Activation Key for this workstation. Return to Seedgrade, paste the key into the Activation Key field, and click Authenticate. Once activated, Seedgrade immediately switches out of Demo Mode and all feature limits are removed. The Account panel then hides automatically, keeping your workspace clean. Use this workflow whenever you need to authorize a new workstation or refresh a license offline.
Each license includes a fixed number of seats (typically two) that you can assign to your own machines. Contact support if you need more seats or a reset.
Please contact support at support@seedgrade.io to deactivate your current seat/seats and get a replacement.
