When a bot author runs the bots on behalf of other users, that's simply a web service. Of course, it requires additional trust from the user since they could potentially end up having to trust you to hold their money or private keys (depending on what the bot actually does).
Additionally, the cost of hosting enough instances, and the increased responsibility to maintain uptime (especially for trading bots and other time-critical operations) would move to the end-user when it's distributed as software rather than as a service.
