Thanks! Gatherly looks good, the eIDAS integration is a great niche.

We just launched, so we’re still in the "discovery" phase regarding our user base but you’re right that many pro services want zero overhead, which is why a paid hosted version is on our roadmap to capture that majority.

We are starting with the self-hosted/open-source angle for two reasons:

Privacy & Control: For agencies handled sensitive data who aren't ready for a full SaaS commitment.

The "Tech-Forward" Freelancer: People doing smaller contracts who want a professional portal without another recurring subscription.

We plan to work on getting merged into Unraid to lower the barrier for those smaller self-hosters so it feels less like "ops" and more like a one-click install

Thanks! The Unraid angle is smart — one-click install removes the biggest objection to self-hosted. That could be a really strong wedge for the privacy-first crowd.

We're seeing a similar split in our market. The accountants and law firms we talk to won't touch self-hosted — they want zero ops and just need it to work. But agencies and consultants who handle sensitive client data (immigration, financial advisory) often ask about data residency and control first.

Your two-track approach (self-hosted free, hosted paid) actually complements what we're doing well. If someone needs full infrastructure control, Atrium is the right fit. If they want managed SaaS with eIDAS compliance baked in, Gatherly covers that. Might even make sense to cross-refer users who land in the wrong bucket.

Good luck with the launch — the market is definitely big enough for both approaches.
