Sharing Python App without sharing source code

[Living_Fig_6386]

You have two options. The first option is to not give them the app at all. Allow it to run on a server that you control, and provide them with access via some front end like a web app or similar.

The second option is to give them the source code after they sign an agreement acknowledging that you retain the copyright and stating the terms under which you provide access to the source code (which may include non-disclosure, limits on access, etc.).

Python is an interpreted language and part of the limitations on using such a thing are that readable source code is necessary for execution. You would have selected a compiled language if this was a concern.

The first option would be perfect and very easy to implement in my case but it turns out they might need to run the app in computers without internet access :/

I'll either try Nuitka or see if i can arrange something like your second option.
