   - q: "Is Dify open source?"
-    a: "Dify publishes source code under modified Apache License 2.0 terms, but the added restrictions mean it is not the standard Apache 2.0 license: operating a multi-tenant service requires written authorization, and the Dify console logo and copyright notices cannot be removed or modified."
+    a: "Dify publishes source code under the Dify Open Source License, which is based on Apache License 2.0 but adds restrictions: operating a multi-tenant service requires written authorization, and the Dify console logo and copyright notices cannot be removed or modified."
   - q: "Is Dify free?"
     a: "Dify can be self-hosted from its published source subject to its modified Apache terms, but self-hosting still creates infrastructure and model costs, and the license adds conditions for multi-tenant commercial services and the Dify console branding."

     a: "Dify alternatives use different billing units, including cloud plans, model usage, workflow executions, managed deployment usage, and self-hosted infrastructure costs. Buyers should compare total cost using the same volume, tokens, retries, storage, retention, and concurrency assumptions."
   - q: "What should I test before choosing a Dify alternative?"
     a: "Teams should test a Dify alternative with one representative production workflow covering retrieval quality, tool calls, model choice, failure handling, debugging, permissions, deployment, latency, and total cost. A feature checklist alone cannot establish production fit."
-  - q: "What is the best Dify alternative?"
-    a: "Sim is the best overall Dify alternative for teams that want visual AI agent workflows, self hosting, an Apache 2.0 core, and support for coordinating models, APIs, tools, and human decisions."
-  - q: "What is the best open source Dify alternative?"
-    a: "Sim is the best open source Dify alternative for visual production workflows because Sim core uses Apache License 2.0, although apps/sim/ee is governed by the separate Sim Enterprise License."
   - q: "What is the best self hosted Dify alternative?"
     a: "Sim is the best self hosted Dify alternative for teams that want a visual workspace and local model connectivity, while n8n is strongest for integration heavy automation and LangGraph is strongest for code first agent runtimes."
-  - q: "Is Dify open source?"
-    a: "Dify distributes its code under the Dify Open Source License, which is based on Apache License 2.0 but adds conditions, so buyers should review the license rather than treating it as identical to the standard Apache License 2.0."
-  - q: "Is Sim open source?"
-    a: "Sim core is open source under Apache License 2.0, while code in apps/sim/ee uses the separate Sim Enterprise License and requires an active Sim Enterprise subscription for production use."
-  - q: "Can Sim be self hosted?"
-    a: "Sim can be self hosted, and any self hosted Sim deployment can connect to local models through Ollama or compatible endpoints such as vLLM, LM Studio, and LiteLLM."
-  - q: "Does Sim require Enterprise for local models?"
-    a: "Sim does not require Enterprise for local models because Ollama and compatible local model endpoints work on any self hosted Sim deployment."
-  - q: "Is n8n open source?"
-    a: "n8n is source available under the Sustainable Use License, which is not an OSI approved open source license and includes restrictions relevant to some commercial uses."
-  - q: "Is Flowise open source?"
-    a: "Flowise community code is available under Apache License 2.0, while enterprise files use separate terms, but the project is no longer maintained and reached end of life on August 31, 2026."
