Open-source workflow automation built for AI agents and technical teams
Build automations with a visual node editor, then insert JavaScript or Python code nodes when you need custom logic.
Connect to 500+ native services, any REST API via HTTP nodes, and any agent or coding assistant through MCP.
Run agents alongside regular steps, inspect every decision, and add structured inputs, guardrails and human approval steps.
Watch workflows execute live, open past runs, replay a run with mocked data and re-run just the step that failed.

The AI-native helpdesk that turns Slack and Teams chats into resolved tickets
Detect and create tickets from channel threads or private bot DMs, so requests become trackable work without asking anyone to leave their chat app.
AI combines the conversation, requester history, connected knowledge and live systems data to answer questions and take actions rather than merely routing them.
Resolved conversations are turned into new or updated documentation, so the knowledge base stays current and future questions are deflected automatically.
Trigger approvals, updates and multi-step workflows across Jira, Linear, HubSpot, Salesforce, Workday, Okta, Stripe and other connected tools, plus Zapier, Make and webhooks.
