One self-hosted workspace holds your team's chat, tasks, notes, and calendar, and Deft lets AI agents work in it beside your people. People get real-time chat with spaces, direct messages, threads, mentions, reactions, files, and presence. Tasks open as Board, Table, Timeline, or Calendar views, with dependencies, subtasks, recurrence, and bulk actions. Notes, decisions, and channel memory become durable knowledge, with graph views and links back to the source conversation. Native calendar events sit beside read-only ICS subscriptions. Agent employees can join channels and receive task assignments. Tag the built-in assistant Defty to draft a task, answer a workspace question, or take a governed action, then review the proposal in an approval card before anything changes. Personal connections let Codex, Claude, ChatGPT, and other streamable HTTP MCP clients act as the signed-in user within revocable scopes. Approval tiers, trust levels, token scopes, revocation, activity history, and action receipts record who or what acted and what changed. OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and local Ollama-style models are supported providers. Chat, tasks, notes, and calendars keep working with no AI key. Modules add company-specific records, relationships, and views, with a bundled Contacts module as the first example.

With nearly 5,000 GitHub stars and a Hacker News launch that garnered 147 points, Colanode delivers the first genuinely local-first alternative to both Slack and Notion in a single self-hosted workspace — writing every operation to a client-side SQLite database before syncing to your server, so teams work at full speed offline, on planes, or through intermittent connections without ever losing a draft. The real-time chat system provides channels and direct messages with instant delivery via WebSocket, while the rich text editor offers Notion-style block-based pages for documents, wikis, meeting notes, and knowledge bases with headings, code blocks, embeds, and nested hierarchies. Customizable databases organize structured data with custom fields and three dynamic views — table for spreadsheet-style browsing, kanban for visual workflow boards, and calendar for time-based planning. Conflict-free Replicated Data Types powered by Yjs handle concurrent editing across pages and database records: multiple users modify the same document simultaneously and the system merges changes automatically without manual conflict resolution. File management supports upload, sharing, and organization within workspaces using pluggable storage backends including local filesystem, S3-compatible services, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage with TUS resumable uploads for large files. The server runs Fastify with Zod validation on Node.js 20+, persists to PostgreSQL with pgvector extension, uses Redis for event broadcasting, and deploys via a single Docker image. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Your team's group chat could have a colleague who has read every email, ticket, and document, remembers all of it, and answers in seconds; MindRoom puts AI agents like that into your chat rooms as full participants. Each agent is a real user on the open Matrix protocol, so you talk to it in MindRoom Chat on web or mobile, in any other Matrix client, or through bridges in Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Discord. Give every agent its own model: a local model for private rooms, a frontier model for hard coding problems, and switch per room or thread whenever the work changes. Agents connect to more than 100 tools, including Gmail, calendars, GitHub, Google Drive, Home Assistant, and any MCP server, and they search your own documents and knowledge bases for answers with sources. Memory persists across conversations and platforms, so an agent remembers people, preferences, and project context months later and can turn repeated work into reusable skills. Before an agent sends an email or runs a command, an approval card shows exactly what will happen; you tap once to allow it, and sandboxed workers keep executed code away from your credentials. Schedule morning briefings, silent inbox checks, and recurring digests in plain language, or wake an agent from any other system with a single HTTP request. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

SourceWeft is an AI workstation you host yourself, where agents, your documents, and your model keys work in one place instead of scattering across chat tabs you do not control. Describe a job and a lead agent breaks it down, handing research, exploration, and execution to focused sub-agents that share the same working context and files. Agents draw on a skill library covering presentations, HTML pages, images, meeting summaries, and study guides, and you can add your own skills so good workflows become repeatable. MCP servers, web search, and web extraction connect agents to outside tools, while approved commands run inside a sandboxed environment that cannot touch the rest of your server. Feed it PDFs, web pages, notes, YouTube videos, Notion, Drive, Gmail, or Slack, then follow citations from any answer back to the source material it came from. Bring your own keys for the chat and indexing models you prefer, organize the team into workspaces with roles and access controls, and pick up any conversation from the web app or desktop clients.

With over 82,000 GitHub stars and 700,000+ downloads, LobeHub has evolved from its origins as LobeChat into a comprehensive multi-agent AI collaboration platform where humans and autonomous agent teams co-evolve. The platform's Agent Harness architecture functions as an operating system between AI models and applications, handling prompt presets, tool orchestration, lifecycle hooks, planning, filesystem access, and sub-agent management across 25+ model providers including OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, Groq, AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, and local models through Ollama. Agent Groups enable sophisticated collaboration with sequential, parallel, iterative, and debate orchestration modes, allowing multiple specialized agents to tackle complex workflows simultaneously. The Agent Builder creates production-ready agents from natural language descriptions with auto-configuration, drawing from a marketplace of 505+ pre-built agents and 10,000+ MCP-compatible skills and plugins. Pages provide collaborative document editing with multi-agent co-authoring, while Schedules automate agent runs around the clock without human supervision. The knowledge base leverages PostgreSQL with pgvector for RAG-powered retrieval, and Personal Memory gives agents transparent, editable context that evolves through continual learning. The full self-hosted stack deploys via Docker Compose with PostgreSQL, Redis, RustFS for S3-compatible storage, and SearXNG for private web search, all configurable through environment variables. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. LobeHub Community licensed.

Every major model provider behind one ChatGPT-style interface: LibreChat spans OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Azure, AWS Bedrock, Vertex AI, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint including local Ollama. You can switch models mid-conversation and compare providers without changing tools. Its Agents framework builds no-code custom assistants with tool access via Model Context Protocol servers, file search over uploaded documents through an optional pgvector-backed RAG service, and a sandboxed Code Interpreter that executes Python, JavaScript, Go, C++, Java, PHP, and Rust. Artifacts render React components, HTML, and Mermaid diagrams directly in chat, and image generation works through DALL-E and other configured providers. Multi-user support is enterprise-grade, with OAuth, SAML, LDAP, and two-factor authentication, per-user conversation history in MongoDB, and Meilisearch-powered search across all messages and files, plus reusable presets, forkable threads, and persistent memory across conversations. The economics favor teams: instead of a ChatGPT Plus seat per person, everyone shares one instance billed per API token, with access to every provider rather than one - and providers see individual API calls, not your accumulated organizational knowledge. Deployment is Docker Compose; API keys and endpoints are configured through .env and librechat.yaml.

Large language models get a polished front end that can run fully offline: Open WebUI is the self-hosted front end of choice. It talks to local model runners, primarily Ollama, and to any OpenAI-compatible API, so LM Studio, vLLM, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter, and cloud providers all plug into the same chat interface and can be mixed per conversation. RAG is built in: upload files to knowledge bases or reference them in chat with the # command, backed by a choice of nine vector databases (ChromaDB and PGVector officially maintained) and multiple extraction engines including Tika and Docling, with hybrid BM25-plus-vector search and cross-encoder reranking. Web search results from providers like SearXNG, Brave, and Tavily inject directly into conversations. Extensibility comes from Python tools and functions that run inside the chat, a Pipelines plugin framework, and native MCP support. Multi-user features include RBAC, SSO, and group permissions, and the instance itself exposes an OpenAI-compatible API your own apps can call.

Self-hosting a language model is only half the job; people still need somewhere pleasant to talk to it, and Chat UI is that window, the same interface that powers HuggingChat. Point it at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, your own Ollama or llama.cpp server, the Hugging Face router, or a hosted gateway like OpenRouter, and the models it serves appear in the picker automatically, with no per-model configuration. Conversations are saved to your database and stay browsable in the sidebar, so a thread from last week can be reopened, continued, and compared against a fresh answer from another model. Multimodal models accept image uploads right in the composer, and models that support it can call MCP tools mid-conversation to fetch data or run actions. For a shared team deployment, OpenID Connect sign-in keeps individual histories and settings separate, and per-user defaults travel with each account. Everything a consumer chatbot would keep on someone else's servers, prompts, uploaded files, and usage history, stays in the MongoDB you control on the same machine. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Organizations deploying multiple large language models across departments use DEEIX Chat as their centralized AI workspace for model routing, multimodal conversations, document retrieval, MCP tool execution, and usage governance. Administrators connect upstream channels across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, xAI, and OpenRouter protocols while configuring route priorities, traffic weights, and automatic circuit breaking from a unified control plane. Team members switch models mid-conversation, branch message threads, adjust reasoning effort, and generate images or video without managing individual API keys, or optionally bring their own provider keys under admin policy rules. Uploaded PDFs, spreadsheets, and images undergo OCR and semantic chunking so users can attach personal or shared knowledge bases directly to chat sessions with traceable retrieval evidence. Interactive responses render live HTML, SVG, Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, and stateful parameter sliders inside a sandboxed preview pane alongside the conversation. Built-in support for Streamable HTTP Model Context Protocol servers lets users discover and invoke external tools with per-message execution limits and full call inspection. Integrated permission groups, OIDC single sign-on, TOTP two-factor authentication, token and per-call billing ledgers, and audit logs give operators complete visibility over usage and spend.

MateClaw delivers a multi-agent AI platform where digital employees run as persistent team members with roles, goals, and accumulated skills rather than stateless chat completions. The Spring Boot backend on Spring AI Alibaba provides ReAct iterative reasoning and Plan-and-Execute decomposition on a StateGraph runtime, with parallel delegation between employees and dynamic context pruning for multi-step tasks. Five career templates ship ready (Product Researcher, Customer Support, Knowledge Curator, Data Analyst, Executive Assistant) while custom employees inherit configurable backstories, pixel-art avatars, and dedicated tool bindings. The MCP integration supports stdio, SSE, and Streamable HTTP transports with per-employee tool isolation preventing capability bleed between agents. ACP bridges bring Claude Code, Codex, and other coding agents in as first-class employees. Workflow orchestration composes multiple employees and system actions into publishable linear DSL processes with seven step modes: sequential, fan_out, collect, conditional, await_approval, dispatch_channel, and write_memory. The trigger system wires cron schedules, webhooks, channel messages, employee lifecycle events, content matches, and workflow completions to automated flows. The Admin Runtime Console provides real-time visibility into running employees with token usage tracking and one-click force-recycle. Spring Boot Actuator monitoring, full audit trail, and per-channel error isolation deliver production-grade reliability. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

GoRaven transforms AI chat from a question-answer window into a full engineering workstation where agents read files, write code, run shell commands, query databases via MCP tools, and deliver structured results — orchestrating across OpenAI, Claude, DeepSeek, Gemini, Qwen, GLM, and Ollama with task-based routing that allocates the right model for each job based on cost and capability. Built on a Go backend using the Freedom framework with Iris HTTP and a React/TypeScript frontend powered by Vite and Tailwind CSS, each user operates in an isolated workspace with team-shared project areas and centrally managed model quotas. The skill marketplace packages prompts, scripts, and workflows as reusable installable units with automatic dependency resolution and centralized versioning. MCP toolchain integration connects agents to internal APIs, databases, private services, and CLI tools so they query data, invoke services, and trigger actions directly. RAG-powered knowledge bases ingest policies, documentation, and business data for real-time retrieval during planning, coding, and Q&A with source attribution. Long-running task support decomposes complex work through a main agent coordinating sub-agents that execute in parallel across sessions. Plugin hooks inject custom logic at conversation start and end, tool calls, and SSE event streams without forking core code. The operations dashboard tracks usage metrics, model consumption, and team activity. Supports SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL with Redis or local memory caching. Deploy with a single Docker command. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.

With 6,800 GitHub stars and over a decade of development since its 2014 release, ONLYOFFICE Docs delivers a self-hosted Microsoft Office replacement with pixel-perfect OOXML rendering and real-time collaborative editing supporting both Fast (character-by-character) and Strict (manual save) co-authoring modes. The suite encompasses five full-featured editors — Document Editor for DOCX/ODT/EPUB/HTML, Spreadsheet Editor with 500+ functions and pivot tables, Presentation Editor with animations and transitions, Form Creator for fillable PDF forms with field validation, and PDF Editor for annotation and conversion — all operating within a unified web interface. Format support spans 50+ types including DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT, ODS, ODP, PDF, CSV, RTF, TXT, and Markdown with server-side conversion between any supported pair. The JavaScript plugin API enables extending editor functionality through a marketplace of ready-made plugins for ChatGPT integration, speech-to-text, OCR, Zotero citations, and Thesaurus. Ready-to-use connectors integrate with Nextcloud, ownCloud, Seafile, Moodle, Odoo, Confluence, SharePoint, Alfresco, Liferay, and Chamilo, while WOPI protocol compliance enables integration with any WOPI-compatible platform. JWT authentication secures all API communications between host applications and the document server. Deploy via Docker with a single command or DEB/RPM packages on Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, or RHEL. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU AGPL v3 licensed.

Confluence and Notion both want your team's documentation in their cloud; Docmost, an open-source collaborative wiki platform, keeps it on your server. The centerpiece is a Notion-style block editor with CRDT-based real-time collaboration: multiple people edit the same page simultaneously and changes merge without conflicts or overwrites. Content lives in spaces - per team, project, or department - with nested page trees, role-based permissions, groups, inline comments, page history with restore, and full-text search across everything. The editor covers tables, code blocks, callouts, KaTeX math, and file attachments, and diagramming is built in rather than bolted on: Mermaid, Draw.io, and Excalidraw all render inside pages, alongside embeds for Airtable, Loom, Miro, and more. Migration paths include Notion, Markdown, HTML, and ZIP archive imports (Confluence, PDF, and DOCX importers ship in the Enterprise edition, along with SSO via SAML/OIDC/LDAP and MFA). The stack is TypeScript with PostgreSQL and Redis, deploys via Docker Compose, runs in air-gapped environments with no external dependencies, and is translated into 10+ languages. The AGPL-3.0 community edition carries no per-seat fees; the project has passed 20,000 GitHub stars since its 2024 launch.

Orbit puts your team's tasks, documents, and conversations in one workspace on your own server, so planning work no longer means checking three separate apps. Task projects carry your own workflow: switch between list, board, and timeline layouts, drag work between statuses, break large efforts into sub-issues, and link related tasks with an activity feed recording every change. Saved views keep preferred filters one click away, and personal pages like My tasks, This week, and Overdue show what needs attention today. Documents live in a page tree with teamspaces and favorites; the rich editor supports tables, code blocks, and checklists, several people can write at once with visible cursors, version history keeps earlier drafts recoverable, and a Notion importer brings existing pages across. Chat sits beside the work rather than in a separate silo: channels, direct messages, threads, files, reactions, and search, with links to tasks and pages unfolding into previews inside the conversation. GitHub sync turns labeled issues and pull requests into tasks and completes them when pull requests merge. AI clients connect through a built-in MCP server with OAuth, so an assistant can read your projects with the full context of your workspace while the data never leaves your server. Administrators manage workspaces, members, roles, API tokens, audit logs, and scheduled backups to S3 from the same interface. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Teams that cannot send messages through someone else's cloud run Mattermost - the open-core, self-hosted alternative to Slack. It provides public and private channels, threaded discussions, unlimited search history, file sharing with previews, one-to-one audio calls, and screen sharing, with desktop clients for Windows, macOS, and Linux plus iOS and Android apps. Messages support full Markdown, which suits engineering conversations with code blocks and logs. Playbooks turn repeatable processes such as incident response and release management into checklist-driven workflows with automated triggers and retrospectives. Integration is a core strength: prebuilt connectors for GitHub, GitLab, Jira, ServiceNow, and PagerDuty, plus webhooks, slash commands, bots, a REST API, and a plugin marketplace with 700+ entries - together making it a working surface for ChatOps rather than just a chat room. Playbooks add keyword and event triggers, task assignment, status broadcasting, and post-incident retrospectives, so operational knowledge is not trapped in individuals' heads. The server is a single Go binary backed by PostgreSQL, with React clients, released monthly under MIT license and deployable fully air-gapped - which is why governments and defense organizations run it inside closed networks, and why the same control applies to any team with confidentiality requirements. The compiled Team Edition is free for unlimited users with no message history cutoff, so costs stay flat as the team grows.
