Is it a scam to charge a price for a product?

We're freemium. You're not forced to get a subscription right away. You can even use the product without it at all.

> there appears to be no way for you to self-host the service at the moment

We will provide such an option if there will be any demand. For now it would just waste a lot of our time without any real output. Still, you can do this if you want.

Huh? The website says "Run your own instance."
Consider this the beginning of the demand, then: I'm not going to use this service unless I can self-host it.
If you're interested in this, please reach me out at dan@safeapps.io. I need some more information to move it up in the backlog, maybe you could help us with that?
Why do I need to help you with this? Your website says that you can "run your own instance", is this false advertising or not?
