Details
The project is provided under a non-FOSS PolyForm Noncommercial License.
The project has a questionable Contributor License which infers that contributions are provided under an MIT license, effectively implicitly washing them via a permissive license.
The project does not appear to call itself open source within its own website or repository.
The project has appeared to raise at least $3m in funding from investors such as OSS Capital, Naval Ravikant, Sahil Lavingia, Slow Ventures, Andreas Antonopoulos, Owen Gunden, Max Webster, Stephen Cole, Fulgur Ventures, Mimesis Capital, Huat Ventures, and Village Global. The project also seems to gain revenue from selling hardware for its software.
