We plan on selling to enterprise companies. We know a lot of companies want to keep their repos private and so we offer them on-prem hosting options. Closed source tools can't really do this because they have to keep their prompt building algorithms behind a private API that they own.

This seems to work pretty well for Codeium, which offers its product free to consumers (at a loss), and is still able to make net profit from enterprise companies. At least that's the plan for now!
