What we couldn't confirm4
- Whether Loops has any paid or differently licensed parts (open-core status).
- Whether the web app and the server are both covered by the AGPL license.
- Whether the project is still early-stage beyond the list's 'early' note.
- Whether any official hosted version exists besides self-hosted instances.
