Teable
An Airtable-style spreadsheet interface directly on PostgreSQL: Teable is an open-source no-code database where every table is a real Postgres table. Unlike tools that store records in a metadata abstraction layer, every Teable table is a real Postgres table with standard column types, so filtering, sorting, and grouping run at database speed, million-row tables answer complex filters in roughly 200 milliseconds without index tuning, and any PostgreSQL-compatible tool - psql, BI dashboards, ETL pipelines - can query the same data directly. The interface offers Grid, Kanban, Gallery, Calendar, and Form views as non-destructive overlays with their own filters and hidden fields, plus 20+ field types, formulas, comments, attachments, batch editing, undo/redo, and edit history. Collaboration is real-time with live cursors and instant sync across views, backed by Redis, and a REST API is auto-generated per table, largely compatible with Airtable API clients - alongside native SQL access for BI tools, analytics pipelines, and your own applications to JOIN and query directly, with no exports, API rate limits, or sync jobs. Global search spans all records, chart plugins handle quick visualization, and CSV and Excel import/export cover migrations. Where Airtable caps paid plans at 100K-500K rows and charges roughly $20 per user per month, a self-hosted Teable instance has neither limit: the Postgres database itself is the export if you ever leave. Built in TypeScript with NestJS, deployed via Docker with PostgreSQL and Redis, and licensed AGPL-3.0.
Baserow
Airtable's spreadsheet-database model, self-hostable and open-source: that is Baserow. It presents data in a spreadsheet-style grid, but underneath each table is a real relational structure with typed fields, links between tables, filters, sorts, and multiple views (grid, gallery, form, kanban, calendar). Beyond the database core, it includes an application builder for composing pages and portals on your data, workflow automations, and dashboards. Everything is API-first: each table exposes a REST endpoint with token auth and webhooks, so it plugs directly into n8n, Zapier, or custom scripts. The stack is Django (Python) on the backend, Vue.js on the frontend, PostgreSQL for storage, with Redis for async tasks. Core features are MIT-licensed; premium features are a paid add-on. The self-hosted version has no row, storage, or API request limits - Airtable's per-base record caps and monthly API quotas simply don't exist here, and capacity is bounded only by your PostgreSQL database and disk. Existing Airtable bases, CSVs, and Excel files import directly with structure preserved, so migration doesn't start from a blank slate, and both the backend and frontend support plugins for custom field types and integrations without forking the core. For non-technical teammates the interface behaves like a spreadsheet; for engineers, the data model is the API.
Mattermost
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.
Buzz
Buzz delivers the first production workspace where humans and AI agents operate as cryptographically equal team members on a self-hosted Nostr relay. The Rust-based backend stores every message, code patch, CI result, review comment, and workflow step as a signed Nostr event in a unified PostgreSQL-backed event log with Redis pub/sub for real-time presence and S3/MinIO for media storage. The integrated Git forge implements NIP-34, turning feature branches into dedicated channels where patches, reviews, and merge decisions live alongside the discussion that produced them — eliminating the split between chat tools and code hosts. Through the open Agent Client Protocol, Buzz natively supports Goose, Anthropic Claude Code, and OpenAI Codex as first-class channel members with scoped permissions, their own audit trails, and the ability to create patches, run workflows, and orchestrate multi-step automations via YAML-defined triggers including message events, reactions, schedules, and webhooks. The Tauri-based desktop client runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux, while buzz-cli provides agent-first JSON I/O for headless automation. Deploy via Docker Compose with the production bundle in deploy/compose/, Railway one-click, or build from source requiring Rust 1.88+, Node 24+, and pnpm. Multi-community mode scopes tenant data by domain with NIP-42 Schnorr authentication, rate limiting, and hash-chain audit logging. 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.
QM
QM is Y Combinator's internal multiplayer agent infrastructure that shifts AI agents from personal assistants to shared company operating layer. The headless TypeScript core runs on Node.js with Fastify handling HTTP, Slack integration via Bolt, and a web UI built with Vite and Lit. PostgreSQL stores sessions, memory, queue state, and audit logs. Every person and every Slack channel gets an isolated sandbox with its own durable file system, installed tools that persist across runs, private memory, keychain view, permissions, and background crons. The harness-agnostic architecture routes agent tasks through Pi, OpenCode, Codex, or Claude Code without vendor lock-in, with production implementations swapping via a single wiring file. Three org-level security postures gate execution: Strict requires human approval for every tool call, Auto applies automated content screening, and Dangerous removes all pauses. Skills are scope-owned and shareable by grant, with admin-gated promotion to the entire organization and skill packs importable from Git repositories. The web apps feature lets agents spin up custom internal applications published to specific users. The qm CLI bootstraps operator-owned deployment directories with digest-pinned release images, infrastructure rendering, secret management, and live verification checks for Docker, Fly.io, or AWS ECS Fargate targets. On RepoCloud, deploy QM on a dedicated VPS with PostgreSQL persistence, Docker socket access, root SSH access, and complete control over your multiplayer agent infrastructure, all under the MIT license.
OpenBot
Open source GrokBot, built by the team behind the AG-UI protocol. OpenBot is the open-source enterprise agent platform that gives every AI coworker its own sandboxed computer — a real Chromium browser with its own login sessions, a private filesystem, and only the MCP tools you explicitly grant. The centralized gateway evaluates CEL policy rules against tool name, intent, bot identity, page URL, element attributes, and file paths before any action executes, writing an immutable audit row for every call and outcome. Any agent that speaks AG-UI — LangGraph, Mastra, CrewAI, Pydantic AI, Google ADK, or hand-written endpoints — registers as a Bot and receives its own channel with persistent conversation history. The take-the-wheel system lets humans assume control when an agent encounters login walls or two-factor prompts, recording control transfers as structured audit events. Knowledge documents from Google Drive and OneDrive carry source-based permissions where deny principals always win and ambiguous mappings refuse retrieval entirely. The React and Vite frontend provides live screen viewing of each agent's browser, channel-based chat, admin settings, and component galleries. The Hono API server on port 3001 handles authentication, role-based access, tenant packaging, and credential management backed by PostgreSQL with pgvector. Deploy via Docker Compose with the included supervisor that manages per-bot computer containers. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Onyx
Formerly known as Danswer and now backed by over 31,000 GitHub stars with 253 releases, Onyx delivers a production-ready AI platform that turns any LLM into a context-aware enterprise assistant connected to your organization's actual knowledge. The agentic RAG pipeline combines BM-25 keyword search with prefix-aware embedding models in a hybrid index, then deploys AI agents to retrieve, verify, and synthesize answers with source citations from over 40 connected workplace tools including Google Drive, Confluence, Slack, Notion, Jira, SharePoint, GitHub, and Linear. Custom AI assistants with configurable prompts, backing knowledge sets, and document-level access control enable specialized agents for engineering, sales, support, and research workflows.

Beyond chat, Onyx provides web search with Serper, Google PSE, Brave, and SearXNG integration, an in-house web crawler, code execution, file creation, and multi-step deep research with report generation. Enterprise features include SSO via Google OAuth, OIDC, or SAML with SCIM provisioning, role-based access control, usage analytics by team and agent, query history auditing, PII removal through custom code hooks, and full whitelabeling. Deploy via Docker Compose on any infrastructure. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed (Community Edition).
LobeHub
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.
Open Canvas
Open-source alternative to OpenAI's Canvas — a collaborative writing and coding environment where AI agents help you draft, edit, and refine documents through an agentic architecture built on LangGraph. The dual-mode editor combines a BlockNote rich text editor for live-rendered markdown with a CodeMirror-based code editor supporting syntax highlighting across multiple programming languages, letting you switch between prose and code artifacts within the same session. The built-in reflection agent automatically generates style rules and user insights from your chat history, storing them in a shared LangGraph memory store that persists across sessions for increasingly personalized assistance. Pre-built quick actions provide one-click access to common writing transformations including summarize, expand, simplify, and translate, while coding actions offer explain, refactor, add comments, and convert between languages. The monorepo architecture separates the Next.js 14 frontend from the LangGraph agent backend, connecting via HTTP and WebSocket protocols through the @langchain/langgraph-sdk client. Seven LLM providers are supported out of the box — OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Fireworks AI, Groq, Azure OpenAI, and local Ollama models — with Supabase handling authentication and data persistence. Deploy via Docker or build from source. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Macro
Macro merges email, team chat, collaborative documents, task management, CRM, and video calls into one keyboard-driven application where AI agents operate across the entire workspace with shared team memory, replacing the Slack plus Notion plus Linear plus Superhuman plus HubSpot stack with a single deployment. The email module provides a multi-account unified inbox with keyboard shortcuts, shared team inboxes, and Gmail integration. Team messaging offers channels and direct messages designed for technical discussions with threaded conversations. The task system draws from Linear with board and list views tightly integrated with channels, email threads, and AI agents. Real-time collaborative documents use CRDT synchronization via Loro for conflict-free editing with Markdown-native formatting and @mention linking. A 2D canvas board embeds @links to tasks, files, and emails for visual project planning. AI agents access unified team-level memory spanning all workspace modules, taking autonomous actions across email, chat, tasks, and documents through MCP-compatible tool interfaces. Video calls include recording, transcription, and automatic logging to team memory. The CRM module tracks customers and contacts with custom properties, email synchronization, and data enrichment. Eighty-plus Rust microservices on the Axum framework handle backend operations while a SolidJS static SPA delivers the frontend with instant search and real-time collaboration. Docker Compose deployment provisions the complete service stack with PostgreSQL, Redis, OpenSearch, and FusionAuth authentication. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
OpenPencil
OpenPencil is the open-source design editor that reads and writes native Figma .fig files using the same Kiwi binary format — enabling bidirectional copy-paste between Figma and OpenPencil without data loss. The built-in AI assistant provides 90+ design tools through a chat interface, creating and modifying shapes, fills, strokes, auto-layout, components, variables, and boolean operations from natural language prompts, with BYOK support for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google AI, OpenRouter, Z.ai, MiniMax, and compatible endpoints. A Skia CanvasKit WASM renderer paired with Yoga WASM layout engine delivers Figma-parity rendering with flex and CSS Grid support including gap, padding, and alignment. The headless CLI inspects node trees via XPath queries, lints naming and accessibility, converts between document formats, analyzes color and typography patterns, extracts design tokens, and exports to PNG, SVG, JSX/Tailwind, and HTML. An MCP server exposes all design operations over stdio and HTTP, connecting Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and Gemini CLI for AI-assisted design automation. Real-time P2P collaboration via WebRTC with Yjs CRDT synchronization requires no server and no account. The Vue SDK provides headless components for embedding the editor into custom applications. Ships as a 7 MB Tauri v2 desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux, or runs in any browser as a PWA. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Kan
What Trello fans wanted Trello to stay: Kan (kan.bn) is a minimalist, frills-free kanban board capturing the original vision before the enterprise pivots - and then adds the things 2025 actually demands. The core is exactly right: drag-and-drop cards across lists, labels and filters to find work fast, comments for discussion on cards, checklists, a detailed activity log tracking every change, and reusable board templates. Workspaces gather your team with member invites and role management, and board visibility controls decide who can view or edit each board. Migration is first-class: a built-in Trello importer brings existing boards over, so switching costs an afternoon, not a quarter. The standout differentiator is the bundled Model Context Protocol server exposing 46 tools across workspaces, boards, lists, cards, comments, checklists, labels, and members - meaning Claude Desktop, Cursor, Copilot, or any MCP client can read and manage your boards in natural language: "move everything assigned to me into Done" becomes a sentence, not a click marathon. The stack is modern TypeScript - Next.js, tRPC, Drizzle ORM over PostgreSQL, Better Auth (credentials or OAuth), Tailwind - with optional SMTP email and S3 file storage. Unlimited boards, lists, and cards; AGPL-licensed.
BigBlueButton
Used daily by millions of educators and learners in over 65 languages and embedded as the default virtual classroom in Moodle Cloud, Canvas, Sakai, D2L, Jenzabar, and Schoology — together comprising more than 75% of the worldwide learning management system market — BigBlueButton has been the leading open-source web conferencing platform for education since its creation at Carleton University in 2007. The platform delivers WebRTC-based real-time audio, video, and screen sharing with a tldraw v2-powered multi-user whiteboard featuring infinite canvas support, allowing multiple participants to annotate slides and draw simultaneously. Breakout rooms support up to eight concurrent groups with collaborative whiteboards enabled by default, and polling with customizable response types lets instructors assess understanding in real time. The built-in Learning Analytics Dashboard answers three questions at a glance: who is attending, who is participating, and who is learning based on poll responses, providing actionable engagement metrics without requiring webcam surveillance. Session recording captures audio, video, slides, chat, and whiteboard annotations for asynchronous playback on any device. The plugin architecture introduced in version 3.0 enables custom extensions, while IMS LTI 1.0 compliance allows integration with Blackboard, Desire2Learn, Pearson Learning Studio, and any conformant platform without custom code. The REST API enables programmatic session management, user authentication, and recording access for custom frontends like the included Greenlight application. Version 4.0 introduces LiveKit-based media and a redesigned interface. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. LGPL-3.0 licensed.
Redmine
Nearly two decades running engineering organizations: Redmine is the veteran open-source project management and issue tracker, a Ruby on Rails application (GPLv2) still in active development. Its core strength is configurability: define your own trackers (bug, feature, task, or anything else), issue statuses, and role-based workflows that control exactly which transitions each role may perform, then extend records with custom fields of every type. Issues support subtasks, relations (blocks, precedes, duplicates), watchers, categories, and full journaled history, with saved custom queries and cross-project filtering for slicing the backlog any way you need. Around the tracker sit Gantt charts and calendars, a roadmap driven by versions, per-project wikis, forums, news, and document repositories, plus time tracking with estimated versus spent hours and activity-based reporting. Multi-project support runs deep - subprojects, per-project modules, and granular role-based permissions - and repository integration (Git, Subversion, Mercurial) links commits to issues automatically. Email notifications, inbound email-to-issue creation, LDAP authentication, a REST API, and a large plugin and theme ecosystem round it out. Recent 6.x releases brought substantial query and rendering optimizations. Self-hosting keeps your entire project history in your own database, free of per-seat licensing.
Cloudflare OS
With over 7,700 GitHub stars and thousands of Cloudflare employees using it daily across every function, Cloudflare OS delivers an open-source AI workspace where every employee gets a personal agent grounded in company context, systems, and skills — not a generic chatbot but a programmable workspace that builds real applications, automates workflows, and connects to internal tools through governed access. The Code Mode agent writes and immediately executes code snippets to perform arbitrary tasks, build full-stack Gadgets with client code, server code, APIs, and durable SQLite state, debug errors, and test results within isolated sandboxes. Gadgets are private application instances running in separate sandboxes — each document, spreadsheet, or tool is its own secure runtime that cannot leak data even to attackers with access to other Gadgets. Blueprints enable sharing application code as templates that others instantiate with independent state, credentials, and resources. Gatekeepers provide security governance giving system owners precise control over what agents can see, change, and when human approval is required before actions execute. Built on Cloudflare Workers using Durable Objects for workspace persistence, Dynamic Workers for Gadget execution, and Facets for access management. Zero Trust security via Cloudflare Access verifies every user and request before granting access. Real-time collaboration lets colleagues use shared Gadgets. Deploy to your own Cloudflare account or self-host on workerd, the open-source Workers runtime, on your own servers. 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.
OnlyOffice
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.
Glass Keep
With nearly 600 GitHub stars and a feature set that rivals commercial note apps, Glass Keep is the self-hosted Google Keep alternative that wraps a full-featured notes system in a glassmorphism UI with blurred backdrops, translucent modals, and smooth transitions. The React and Vite frontend renders notes in a masonry card grid with pinning, color themes, tag chips, and drag-and-drop reordering. Text notes support Markdown with headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, blockquotes, and fenced code blocks, while checklists offer inline editing, drag-to-reorder items, and direct toggle from the grid without opening the note. A freehand drawing mode provides customizable brush sizes and colors for handwritten notes. The private AI assistant runs an optimized Llama 3.2 (1B) model entirely inside the Docker container using RAG over your own notes, answering queries like "what are my AWS commands?" without any data leaving your server. Deep search spans titles, Markdown text, tags, checklist items, and image names. Import notes from Google Keep via Takeout JSON files or export your entire vault as JSON with per-note Markdown downloads. The Express backend with better-sqlite3 requires no external database. Real-time collaboration enables shared checklists with live item toggling. Dark and light themes persist across sessions, and the PWA manifest supports installation on any device. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
LinkWarden
Links rot - the hard truth Linkwarden is built around, as a collaborative bookmark manager that preserves what it saves. Every page you save is fully preserved - a screenshot, a PDF, a self-contained single-file HTML archive (generated by the Monolith Rust binary), and a clean reader view - so the content survives even after the original site disappears. Think of it as a private Wayback Machine you own, with an optional one-click snapshot to archive.org on top. The reading experience matches the archival rigor: a distraction- free reader view supports text highlighting and annotation, and full-text search across everything you have saved is powered by Meilisearch. Optional AI tagging analyzes page content and auto-assigns tags - generate new ones, pick from your existing set, or constrain to predefined tags - with providers ranging from local Ollama models (fully private) to OpenAI, Anthropic, and OpenRouter. Organization is collections, sub-collections, and multiple tags per link; teams collaborate on shared collections with per-member permissions, and public collections share curated link sets (with preserved copies) to anyone. The stack is Next.js/React on TypeScript with PostgreSQL via Prisma, NextAuth supporting credentials, OAuth2, and SAML SSO, and a Playwright-driven headless Chromium worker doing the capture. Native iOS and Android apps and browser extensions feed it from anywhere.
