Kanjun here, cofounder of Imbue (we put out this blog post, and I'm quite surprised it's on the front page of HN!)

The agent orchestration library (mngr) is open source, so we aren't selling anything. There is literally no way for us to make money on it.

We shipped it this way instead of trying to monetize because we believe open agents must win over closed / verticalized platforms in order for humans to live freely in our AI future. We have plenty of money and runway as a company, and this feels much more important to work on.
