## Frequently Asked Questions

**Is the Open Source version production-ready?**  
Yes. Preloop is Apache 2.0 licensed and already used in production to govern OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode fleets. Self-hosting gives you the full MCP firewall, AI model gateway, policy engine, approvals, runtime observability, and audit trail.

**Can I upgrade from Open Source to Teams later?**  
Yes. There is a data migration path from a self-hosted Preloop install to a Teams workspace — policies, flows, agent configurations, and audit history can be carried over so you do not lose operational evidence when you move.

**Can I change plans later?**  
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. Changes take effect immediately and your existing policies, flows, and approvals are preserved.

**What payment methods do you accept?**  
We accept all major credit cards and can invoice for annual Teams and Enterprise plans.

**Is there a free trial?**  
Yes. The Teams plan comes with a 14-day free trial. The Open Source edition is free forever under Apache 2.0 and you can self-host with no time limit.

**What's the difference between Teams and Enterprise?**  
Teams is cloud-hosted with team approvals, CEL conditional approvals, AI-driven approvals, and audit impersonation. Enterprise adds on-prem or private-VPC deployment, SSO/SAML/SCIM (planned), dedicated support with SLA, custom integrations, and AI Act readiness assistance.

**Do you support self-hosting with enterprise features?**  
Yes. Enterprise customers can run Preloop on their own infrastructure — on-prem or inside a private VPC — with the same RBAC, team approvals, CEL, and audit impersonation available in Teams, plus a dedicated SLA and support channel.
