It is nice to see more work on renovate but your comparison, especially the points on filtering, license keys and discovery, seems misleading for at least GitLab.

Both work with mend's renovate WITHOUT a license key, see also https://gitlab.com/renovate-bot/renovate-runner. As it is just a scheduled pipeline then you can also adjust frequency, timeouts and more.

I think the confusion is also because it's a comparison of Community Self-Hosted (CE) vs the pure Open Source CLI - the latter is what works without license key

I'll see if I can help with clarifying this in the table!
