Overview
Budibase is an open-source operations platform for building internal apps, automations and AI agents. Teams use it to handle requests, automate workflows, manage processes and connect business systems in one place, instead of stitching tools together.
What it does well
Budibase agents handle everyday employee requests such as questions, approvals and issue reports, and take action by creating records, routing approvals, updating apps and notifying teams. Alongside the agents, you can build internal apps and automations on top of your existing data. Apps you build with it are not bound by its GPL license.
Why it’s in the collection
Budibase covers the internal-tools ground of Retool and adds AI agents that act on requests, all on your own infrastructure. It is GPL-licensed.
