Congratulations on launching, but consider distilling a part of the project and making it available under a free and open source license like MIT or Apache or BSD.

There are many commercial and open source products on the market, some more established and less expensive than your offering. From the business standpoint, it's easy to sell something like ag-grid because many developers have experience with its open source offering, so we know that we can find experienced people on the market to help if necessary. Your project doesn't benefit from that community and doesn't benefit from having a lower price point (it's comparable to what ag-grid charges)



I expect he may be averse to choosing a permissive license like the ones you mention, but perhaps AGPL?
