Original Source

Open-source, subscription-based SaaS. Powerful tools should be accessible. Core product is free and open source. We monetize through Pro subscriptions and enterprise features.

Tiers

  • Free for individuals — Core experience, forever. Most features work without any subscription.
  • Pro subscription — Advanced features for power users. Trial starts immediately upon signup to shorten time-to-value.
  • Custom for enterprise — Tailored for compliance-sensitive organizations.

Why this works

Being open source gives us a distribution advantage — similar to PostHog and Vercel. Users try the product with zero friction, and those who find value naturally convert to Pro.
