a: "Yes. Retool Agents automate work with AI, but Retool bills agent use by the hour (https://docs.retool.com/support/billing-usage/agents), separately from its AI credits for app building. See the Retool and Sim comparison if your main deliverable is an agent workflow rather than an internal app."

- q: "Is Sim really free to self-host?"
18
-
a: "Yes. Anyone can run Sim's Apache 2.0 core with Docker Compose or Kubernetes without paying a license fee. You still pay for infrastructure and model usage. Supported self-hosting is an Enterprise plan feature, and production use of Enterprise features, including SSO and audit logs, requires an Enterprise subscription. The enterprise exception is at https://github.com/simstudioai/sim/blob/main/apps/sim/ee/LICENSE."

a: "No option is cheapest at every usage level. Sim self-hosting removes the core platform license fee, but you must cover infrastructure and model costs. Sim Cloud's free credits are a one-time grant, not a recurring production allowance."

a: "Sim's core uses the Apache 2.0 license (https://github.com/simstudioai/sim/blob/main/LICENSE), with the enterprise exception at https://github.com/simstudioai/sim/blob/main/apps/sim/ee/LICENSE. Dify uses a modified Apache 2.0 license with added conditions (https://github.com/langgenius/dify/blob/main/LICENSE), while n8n's Sustainable Use License is source-available and n8n does not call itself open source (https://docs.n8n.io/n8n-community-license/community-license/license-faq). Retool is proprietary, and its self-hosted deployment requires a Retool-issued license key (https://docs.retool.com/self-hosted/self-managed/tutorials/kubernetes/kubernetes-helm)."
