...and you need to use their SaaS to make it work, no?

Nope, you can sync state using just an S3 bucket (or local filesystem). It’s a bit hidden in their docs though.

No, just like Terraform works with different storage backends, theirs does too.

I don't think so, but you need to manage/sync the infrastructure state yourself.
It does away with the notion that you need serialized yaml files, although in its current incarnation it can produce them, and instead runs programs which generates collections of named (and hierarchically defined) resources which can then be "applied" as a batch.
It uses lazy values to generate a directed graph to determine the order for creating and tearing down resources as well as safely propagate configuration outputs and secrets.
