Only TradeServer keeps keys on your own infrastructure; Starter to Pro run in HaasOnline’s cloud. Re-read 2026-09-14: the page defaults to annual crypto billing, and the $11.99–$149.99 figures previously recorded as monthly prices are the crypto-annual rates.Free and open source under Apache 2.0 — no subscription, licence or token purchase. The economics to understand: the Foundation is funded partly by exchange fee-share on order flow routed through its connectors (disclosed in its FAQ), so your trading indirectly funds the maintainer. Direct costs are your infrastructure and exchange fees. Re-read 2026-09-09: the FAQ still states "Hummingbot is a free software, so you can download, install, and run it for free", under Apache 2.0.
