Space (and WebCrate) are currently free!

Even if they charge something for it in the future, the version of WebCrate you install today will always be free.

On Deta Space updates are also opt-in, you choose when and if you want to update WebCrate.

How is the service currently being funded?

WebCrate is free since I as a dev don't run any servers and the data/compute lives with the users. I don't have any operational costs essentially.

Deta Space is just getting started -- their plan is to offer payments and take a percentage for paid apps.
