Access is open on Algorithmia and anybody can view the source code of any of the algorithms. The charge comes at the time of hosting it on our infrastructure so what you are paying for is compute (a part of which we donate back to the open source project).

That makes more sense. So you're a microservice platform.

Good luck. If you kill it I look forward to hearing about an acquisition by Amazon. ;)

Where do I see the source code for algorithms? For example, there is no link for source code for this: https://algorithmia.com/algorithms/tags/RecommendGitHubFromT...

If you're accepting Affero GPL licenses then please post the source code to Algorithmia under the Affero GPL license.

Edit: also please collect and post source code of the callers' programs too, if they're using AGPL algorithms.

You have effectively described the AGPL restrictions that explain why we do not currently accept algorithms licensed under AGPL.
