Editions (Core vs Enterprise)
What's in Fosnie (Apache-2.0) and what Fosnie Enterprise adds.
Fosnie is free and open-source under Apache-2.0 – a complete, self-contained product with nothing above locked behind a paywall. Fosnie Enterprise is a separate commercial edition for larger and regulated organisations; it depends on Core and adds the compliance, governance, and scale layer below.
