Is ZenTask AI open source?

ZenTask AI uses an open-source runtime released under Apache 2.0, which the reviewer describes as transparent and cost-effective. Tasks start running within minutes with no installation required. The agents themselves come from a selection of predefined options, so not every custom need is covered.
