Would be good to include [Tyk](https://Tyk.io) in there, as far as OSS gateways go it's one of the more popular ones (caveat: I'm the founder) :-)

That pricing page REALLY bothers me in that it's "starts out free" -> "contact us for details" and no other details :<
People confuse our pricing page with OSS, Tyk Open Source is batteries-included, so you get 100% of the functionality free of charge. We charge only for the stuff that companies like: GUIs, RBAC, SSO etc. This is all delivered by a closed source product, and to get pricing for that, we want to talk to you.

We don’t hide the ball We invest heavily in ensuring you can do everything you need to do in OSS version We ensure that there’s always an OSS way of doing things with Tyk, we don’t strong arm you into buying

We do need to feed ourselves, so for the proprietary stuff, we need to be competitive, that’s just how the market works.

The market has prices out in the open (mostly)
Seconded! Companies that intentionally leave out the pricing is automatically blacklisted to me. It shows that the company is not transparent.
Thanks! I’ll check it out and update the post.
