The five walls
✓ Price wall
The free tier ends. The limit you hit while everything still looks free.
100% Free and open source.
source · checked 2026-09-27
✓ Permission wall
You can see the setting but not touch it. Licenses and admin roles decide what you control.
No permissions gate.

✓ Gate wall
A human at the vendor decides your timeline — approvals, reviews, onboarding queues.
Open download.
source · checked 2026-09-27
✓ Meter wall
Cost scales with your success. Per-unit, per-seat, per-message pricing that grows as you do.
Limited only by your hardware.
source · checked 2026-09-27
✓ Exit wall
Getting out costs more than getting in. Your data, your domain, your number — who keeps them.
Tests are code; standard migration.
