Don't know if it is you specifically, but anvil.works comes up in these contexts a lot so for once I'm going to give you some feedback: anvil.works is not the same thing.

You have some nice looking tooling, but you insist on hosting the result and locking the user into paying rent to use something they built. Your on-prem is locked behind "if you have to ask you can't afford it".

You'd have more interest from people like me if I could just buy or subscribe to your tool and know that even if we eventually drop the subscription the application I produced would still be usable.

But I suspect that your goal isn't to convince people like me, but catch people reading this who might be more amenable to your terms.
