Impressive. I'd love to know why you chose to go open-source.

Thank you. We chose open source for several reasons:

1. We are building for Engineering Teams: Being in the public domain allows us to collaborate openly with engineering teams and build a better product.

2. Building Trust in AI Agents: Trust is crucial in AI development. By going open source, we demonstrate transparency and accountability, enhancing trust in our AI agents.

3. Enabling Marketplace Development: Our vision includes creating a marketplace for AI agents (Integrating with multiple tools). Open source facilitates community involvement, driving the growth of this marketplace.

4. Community: We've noticed a gap in a vocal community focused on team management and mutual support. Our aim is to create a space where individuals can come together to share knowledge and assist each other effectively.

We love opensource. We have always built in opensource.

To be clear, being in “the public domain” has a specific and clear definition. You’ve licensed under MIT (which is great!) but it’s not the same thing as PD or a PD-equivalent licence like CC0.

We apologize for the confusion. You are right our project is under the MIT License, allowing open use but not placing it in the public domain like CC0.
