Automatisch runs your Zapier workflows on your own hardware - an open-source, self-hosted automation platform built as a direct alternative. Flows are chains of steps: one trigger (a polling or webhook event such as a new GitHub issue, a Stripe payment, or a form submission) followed by action steps that pass data downstream (post to Slack, append a Google Sheets row, update Notion). The visual builder deliberately mirrors Zapier's trigger-action model, so migrating existing Zaps requires no retraining and no programming knowledge. Roughly 60 integrations cover common business services - Slack, GitHub, Google Sheets, Notion, Stripe, Discord - and connections store credentials per service, with multiple accounts per app supported. Every execution runs on your own server: execution history, logs, and payload data never touch a third-party processor, which matters for GDPR, healthcare, and finance workloads. Error handling with retry logic, a REST API for programmatic flow management, and Docker Compose deployment round out the platform. The AGPL-3.0 Community Edition has no feature limits or per-task billing; an Enterprise Edition adds SSO, roles, and audit logs.

Sim Studio lets teams build, deploy, and monitor AI agent workflows by dragging blocks onto a visual canvas and wiring them into executable pipelines, backed by over 1,000 integrations. The React Flow editor represents each step as a node: LLM calls, tool invocations, conditional branches, and data transformations form directed acyclic graphs that run as complete agent pipelines. Every major LLM provider works natively, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Groq, and Cerebras, plus local models through Ollama and vLLM. Integrations span Gmail, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, WhatsApp, Notion, Google Workspace, Airtable, GitHub, Jira, Linear, Perplexity, Firecrawl, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Pinecone, and Qdrant. Built-in tables provide a database layer, a file store offers shared team storage, and knowledge bases powered by PostgreSQL with pgvector enable retrieval-augmented generation. Finished workflows deploy as REST API endpoints, scheduled jobs, or Slack bots, with block-by-block execution traces for full observability. Real-time collaborative editing via Socket.io supports simultaneous multi-user construction. Alternatively, describe agent behavior in natural language and Sim assembles the workflow automatically. Built on Next.js App Router, Bun runtime, Drizzle ORM, and Tailwind CSS. 29,400+ GitHub stars and 100,000+ builders. Apache-2.0 licensed.

With over 7,500 GitHub stars and 140 contributors, Matterbridge is the Go-powered chat bridge that connects over 20 messaging platforms through a single TOML configuration file, letting teams communicate across platform boundaries without forcing anyone to switch applications. The gateway architecture routes messages bidirectionally between any combination of Discord, Slack, Telegram, Matrix, IRC, Mattermost, Microsoft Teams, XMPP, Rocket.Chat, Nextcloud Talk, Keybase, Mumble, Twitch, WhatsApp, VK, Gitter, Zulip, ssh-chat, and Harmony, with transparent username and avatar spoofing so bridged messages appear native on each platform. Message edits and deletes propagate across bridges, file attachments and inline images transfer between protocols, threading and reply context is preserved where platforms support it, and private group bridging enables confidential cross-platform conversations. Multiple independent gateways can run simultaneously, each bridging different channel sets with different protocol combinations. The REST API enables third-party integrations and custom bridges without modifying the Matterbridge codebase, while the tengo scripting engine allows inline message transformation and filtering. Game chat support bridges Minecraft and Counter-Strike server chat into messaging platforms. Deployment runs as a single static Go binary with zero dependencies, or as the official Docker image with the configuration file mounted as a volume. 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.

A clean alternative to n8n and Zapier that puts AI-native workflows front and center, Fynt is the MIT-licensed workflow automation platform where you drag nodes onto a React Flow canvas, wire them together with typed connections, and let a distributed BullMQ engine execute them — with every step streamed live to your browser over WebSockets so you never wonder what happened inside a run. The node library spans triggers (manual, webhook, cron scheduling), AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini with structured output parsing), service integrations (GitHub webhooks, Notion databases, Slack channels, Discord bots, arbitrary HTTP endpoints), logic gates (conditional branching, filtering, data transformation), and utility nodes (delay, logging, payload mapping). The execution architecture separates concerns across three services: a Next.js 16 web application serving the React 19 workflow builder and tRPC API, a BullMQ worker processing jobs with node-level retries and checkpointing for crash-safe execution, and a dedicated WebSocket relay server broadcasting real-time run events via Redis Pub/Sub. All stored credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM with per-credential initialization vectors. The full-stack deploys as a single Docker Compose stack (web, worker, realtime, PostgreSQL, Redis) or individually via pnpm workspaces in a Turborepo monorepo. Authentication is handled through better-auth with configurable OAuth providers. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Scrumboy is a Kanban and sprint management tool that ships as a single Go binary backed by SQLite, deploys in under ten seconds via Docker, and uniquely integrates with AI coding agents through a standards-compliant MCP JSON-RPC endpoint. The dual-mode architecture supports Full mode with bootstrapped authentication, TOTP two-factor auth, OIDC/SSO integration through Keycloak, Authentik, Auth0, or Entra ID, role-based access control across Owner, Admin, User system tiers plus per-project Maintainer, Contributor, and Viewer roles, and Anonymous mode that generates instant shareable boards accessible via unique URLs with zero signup requirement. Custom workflows allow user-defined lane configurations per project including designated "Done" lanes, while sprints with configurable one or two-week cycles include board-level sprint filtering and the ability to disable and re-enable sprint tracking without losing history. Real-time Server-Sent Events power instant multi-user board updates, and outbound webhooks deliver JSON payloads to registered URLs when domain events fire with HMAC signature verification. The MCP endpoint at /mcp/rpc enables native integration with Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI agents through OAuth 2.1 with PKCE authorization, while API access tokens support CLI automation and CI/CD pipelines. Additional capabilities include VoiceFlow voice commands, per-project sticky-note walls, Markdown and Mermaid diagram support in task notes, append-only audit trails, VAPID Web Push notifications, SMTP password reset, Trello import, JSON backup with merge/replace/copy strategies, and 22-language internationalization. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL v3.0 licensed.
