if I were you I'd seek to sell it instead of open-source it. "pivoting to adding value with LLMs on top" is very expensive from a COGS standpoint; and will complicate your business economics, not simplify them.
You don't seem to have a problem where open-source is the answer; the problem you seem to have is you built a business and a business model you weren't intending to build; and you don't solve that by open-sourcing. You can solve that a myriad of ways, but none of them are readily solved by open-sourcing your product.

- gortok 2y agoAfter having looked over your product's website (ozma.io), it feels like the issue may be more ensuring you're being seen by your target customer and solving a problem they have that entices them to use your product. Your product's website is very 'feature' oriented, and not very 'Pain/Dream/Fix' formatted. https://sharpen.page/jtbd/copywriting/pain-dream-fix-and-jtbd/ https://sharpen.page/jtbd/copywriting/pain-dream-fix-and-jtb...
