Questions to ask before you buy Appsmith
Self-hosting means your team runs updates, backups and security. The documentation does not say whether Appsmith AI is available in self-hosted editions or where AI requests are processed, so ask before sending personal data. Advanced SSO needs Enterprise. Agents in HR processes need human oversight and a clear data scope.
