I understand your mention of open source ethos, but open source projects can also have commercial aspects. It is primarily about transparency, collaboration, and free distribution of software. There are many successful open source initiatives that incorporate commercial strategies to support their ongoing development, professional support services, and operational costs. Our pricing page is part of our commercial approach, ensuring we sustain our open source contributions, also for some additional services that we provide.

The pricing vary depending of the use case, for those using the CMS, it is mainly for the usage of our hosted version of the visual builder and the CMS. We already provide ways to connect with other CMSes besides our own, like sanity, stripe, contentful, hygraph... But it’s possible to self host and connect with other CMSes.
