AFAIK it's open-source: https://github.com/frostsnap/frostsnap/
The code is. What about the hardware? I think in the first version they were using Rasberry Pis (you can see their old posts), but the most recent picture seems like a proprietary device.
Based on the pic I assume the PCB boards are where the keys are kept? therefore it is "air gapped".
I see them connected to the phone via USB. Not "air gapped" in my book. But you are free to trust them.
You can replace a signer in a "multisig" wallet without generation new public keys. This is huge.
Seems like a huge red flag to me. Can't this be abused? Maybe i'm wrong. Personally i don't need any of this nor i would recommend anyone to use. But it's an interesting project i will give them that.

From the GitHub README (aka in plain site) "device/ - The firmware which runs on ESP-32 microprocessors, handling message IO, user interaction, and display."

Using devices does not mean they're connected to the internet. FROST requires communication between signers, plugging devices together simplifies this communication.

Study FROST some more. Stephan Livera does a great episode on it.
