Source Vendor clarifications The Apache-2.0 monitoring software is free, but optional AI requires the user's own provider/API key and that provider's charges apply. Email alerts require a configured SMTP account or optional relay; provider charges may apply and provider acceptance does not guarantee inbox delivery. The current release is a single-host Linux preview (one host per installation), not a hosted monitoring service. AI explains recorded evidence and does not execute repairs. Provided by the vendor.
