How we handle your data

Four commitments we can make today — verifiable in the source, not in a marketing PDF.

We don't train on your work

Your prompts and generations stay yours. We don't train models on them or share them with third parties. When you bring your own provider keys, that provider's policy applies on their side.

Your keys, your spend

Bring your own OpenAI, Replicate, or model-provider keys. Requests pass through — providers bill you, no markup, no key escrow.

Export and exit anytime

Workspaces, prompts, and assets export to the same schema as self-host. Walk away with your data intact — no lock-in.

Same code, in the open

Cloud runs the source-available studio. Audit it, fork it, or self-host the exact same build whenever you want.

Frequently asked questions

Pricing

Is OpenCauldron really free?
Depends on how you run it. Self-host is free and source-available under the Sustainable Use License — you only pay providers like Google or Replicate directly for AI model API usage with your own keys. Cloud is free during invite-only beta; paid tiers will come later, and you can always bring your own provider keys to keep costs predictable.

Setup

What API keys do I need?
You only need keys for the providers you want to use. For example, a Google AI API key gives you access to Imagen 4 and Veo. A Replicate token unlocks Flux Pro. You can start with just one provider and add more as needed.

Custom models

Can I add custom models?
Yes. OpenCauldron has a provider registry that makes it straightforward to add new models. You can fork the repo and add any model that has an API. We also welcome PRs to add new providers to the main project.

Billing

How is billing handled?
On self-host, OpenCauldron doesn't handle billing — your API keys are charged directly by each provider at their standard rates. On Cloud, you'll see provider costs the same way plus a monthly subscription for the hosted convenience (free during beta). Either way, the built-in usage dashboard breaks down every generation's cost by user, model, and brand.

Privacy

Where is my data stored?
On self-host, everything stays on your infrastructure — prompts and metadata in your PostgreSQL database, generated assets in your Cloudflare R2 bucket (or any S3-compatible storage). The self-hosted build never phones home or collects telemetry. On Cloud, your data lives in our managed PostgreSQL and R2 with per-workspace isolation — same code as self-host, just running for you.

Hosting

Can I use it without self-hosting?
Yes — OpenCauldron Cloud is the hosted version of the studio. Sign in with Google, get a workspace, start generating — no Docker, no setup. It's in invite-only beta right now; request a spot from the Cloud toggle at the top of the page. Prefer to run your own? Docker takes a few minutes — see the installation docs.

License

What license is OpenCauldron under?
OpenCauldron is released under the Sustainable Use License — the same license n8n uses. It's source-available: free for any internal business, personal, or non-commercial use, free to fork, modify, and contribute back. The one thing it prevents is third parties selling it as a competing commercial service. This keeps the project sustainable while staying open to almost everyone who wants to use or improve it.
