This means zero vendor lock in, no usage related cost, no hidden cost. The freedom to continue to work with our software even if you decide to work with other companies for support and development. The freedom to fork.

We believe that this value proposition is hard to find matched in the industry. There are many companies 'foss-washing' or 'open-washing' their products by talking an open source narrative, when in fact their entire business model is either upselling closed source components (open core etc), or capturing a market to then close down the license and escalate costs. Red flags for both are contributor license agreements and not accepting outside contributions with relevant value to enterprise users.
