Open Source App Cloud Marketplace

Webhooks, cron schedules, and app events trigger chains of nodes that fetch, transform, and route data: n8n is a workflow automation platform built around a visual, node-based editor. It ships with 400+ built-in integrations covering databases like Postgres, SaaS tools like Slack and HubSpot, and every major AI provider. When a pre-built node does not exist, the HTTP Request node calls any REST API, and the Code node runs JavaScript or Python inline, so you are never blocked by a missing connector. Workflows execute as directed graphs with branching, loops, error handling, and sub-workflows, and every run is logged for inspection and replay during debugging. It also includes LangChain-based nodes for building AI agents with tool calling and memory. Self-hosting on RepoCloud gives you unlimited workflow executions with no per-task pricing, and all data stays on your instance. Runs on Node.js with SQLite by default; add Postgres and Redis queue mode when you need to scale workers horizontally.

The de facto dashboard of observability: Grafana is the open-source frontend that turns the data stores you already run into interactive graphs. It does not store metrics itself; it connects to the data stores you already run and turns their contents into interactive dashboards. Supported sources number over 150 via plugins: Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, InfluxDB, Elasticsearch, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, AWS CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Monitoring, and many more. Dashboards are built from a large library of panel types (time series, heatmaps, tables, gauges, logs) with template variables for reusable, parameterized views. Unified alerting evaluates rules against any connected data source, not just Prometheus, and routes notifications to Slack, PagerDuty, email, and other channels with grouping and silencing - unlike Prometheus Alertmanager, a single rule can combine a Loki log pattern, a PostgreSQL query result, and a CloudWatch metric. Dashboards serialize to JSON and data sources configure via provisioning files, so the entire observability setup can live in Git and deploy repeatably across environments. Explore mode adds ad-hoc querying outside dashboards, with split view for correlating a metric spike against the matching log lines, and access control spans organizations, teams, folder permissions, and OAuth, LDAP, and SAML integration. Written in Go and TypeScript, AGPL-licensed. Self-hosting gives you unlimited users, dashboards, and queries at flat hosting cost, without Grafana Cloud's usage-based pricing.

Your own Heroku or Vercel on a dedicated server — Dokploy is the open-source PaaS that replaces cloud platform subscriptions with a single dashboard you control. Point it at a Git repository or a Docker image, and it builds and deploys the application using Dockerfiles, Nixpacks, or Heroku/Paketo buildpacks. Traefik handles reverse proxying, routing, load balancing, automatic Let's Encrypt SSL, and HTTP/3. Databases — MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, libsql, and Redis — provision from the UI with automated backups to any S3-compatible destination. Complex multi-service applications deploy through native Docker Compose support, and multi-node scaling uses Docker Swarm. The web dashboard covers environment variables, volumes, resource limits, real-time CPU/memory/network monitoring, and deployment logs, with a CLI and REST API for automation. Deploy notifications go to Slack, Discord, Telegram, or email. One-click templates install common open-source tools, and a single control plane can manage deployments across multiple remote servers. Because everything is standard Docker, there is no lock-in: Dockerfiles, Compose files, and data volumes work anywhere else Docker runs. The push-to-deploy workflow of a $20/seat cloud PaaS, running on a dedicated VPS with guaranteed CPU, RAM, SSD, and full root access — no per-app, per-environment, or per-seat fees regardless of how many applications you deploy. 26,000+ GitHub stars.

Data, AI, and infrastructure workflows, orchestrated from declarative YAML: Kestra is an open-source, event-driven orchestration platform. Flows are declared in YAML - no DSL rewrites or Python decorators - and the definition stays the single source of truth even when edited through the UI, API, CI/CD, or Terraform, which makes pull-request review, versioning, and rollback natural. Tasks run in any language: Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, R, SQL, or Bash scripts executed in containers, and a plugin ecosystem of 1,000+ integrations covers ingestion, dbt, Airbyte, Spark, cloud storage, databases, and messaging systems. Scheduling supports cron triggers, event triggers, backfills, and conditional branching, with retries, timeouts, error handling, and typed inputs and outputs that surface artifacts in the UI. Namespaces, labels, and subflows organize workflows at scale, and the embedded code editor includes Git integration. Common uses span ETL/ELT pipelines, dbt runs, microservice coordination, infrastructure provisioning, and human-in-the-loop approvals. Java-based, Apache 2.0 licensed, deployed via Docker or Kubernetes.

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.

Zapier's job, on your own server: Activepieces is an open-source workflow automation platform built to be exactly that replacement. Flows are built in a visual no-code editor with triggers, actions, loops, conditional branches, auto-retries, raw HTTP steps, and code steps that run JavaScript or TypeScript with full npm package support. Integrations are "pieces" - type-safe TypeScript npm packages with hot reloading for local development - and the catalog spans 600+ services, with the large majority contributed by the community. The platform is AI-first in two directions: native AI pieces call OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Azure models inside flows, and every piece automatically doubles as an MCP server, so assistants like Claude Desktop and Cursor can invoke your integrations and workflows through natural language. A built-in MCP server also exposes 30 tools for building flows, managing tables, and running tests agentically. Flows are fully versioned with draft and locked states. The core is MIT-licensed and runs on TypeScript with PostgreSQL and Redis.

Retool's job, self-hosted: ToolJet is an open-source low-code platform for building internal tools, dashboards, and admin panels. Apps are assembled in a drag-and-drop visual builder with 60+ responsive components, including tables, charts, forms, and lists, and connected to 80+ data sources: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, REST and GraphQL APIs, cloud storage, and common SaaS tools. When visual configuration is not enough, you can run JavaScript or Python inline for queries and transformations. A built-in no-code database (ToolJet Database) covers apps that need their own tables without provisioning an external database, Workflows add node-based automation for background jobs with dedicated worker containers and a Redis-backed queue, and multi-page apps with multiplayer editing, inline comments, and mentions support team development. Security is designed for internal data: credentials are AES-256-GCM encrypted, data flows proxy-only through your server so database contents never reach a third-party cloud, and granular per-app access control plus SSO gate each tool. Where Retool-style platforms bill per builder and sometimes per end user, the self-hosted Community Edition serves unlimited builders and users at hosting cost, and full source availability means the platform itself can be forked, audited, and extended. The stack is Node.js and React on PostgreSQL, deployed via Docker.

Thirteen-plus LLM providers, one unified client: NextChat (formerly ChatGPT-Next-Web) is an open-source AI chat interface built on Next.js that spans OpenAI GPT-4, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, Groq, Azure endpoints, and self-hosted backends like Ollama, LocalAI, and RWKV-Runner. Its defining trait is minimalism - the first screen loads in about 100 KB, the desktop client is roughly 5 MB, and there is no database or user system to operate; chat history lives locally in the browser with optional WebDAV or UpStash Redis sync. The Mask system saves reusable prompt-template personas you can share and debug, long conversations auto-compress to fit context windows, and Markdown rendering covers LaTeX, Mermaid diagrams, and code highlighting with streaming responses. Plugins add web search and calculators, MCP support enables external tool calling, and Artifacts previews generated content in a separate pane. Ships as a web app, Docker image, and Tauri desktop builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux, translated into 20+ languages. MIT-licensed.

The most widely deployed open-source BI tool, Metabase is a visualization and query layer that sits on top of your existing databases without ingesting or copying data. Non-technical users ask questions through a visual query builder with drill-through menus that answer follow-ups like "broken down by month" without writing a new query, while analysts use the native SQL editor with variables and templates for complex work. Questions assemble into interactive dashboards with filters, auto-refresh, fullscreen mode, and custom click behavior, and dashboard subscriptions email or Slack scheduled reports to stakeholders. It connects to 20+ data sources including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, SQL Server, BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, and ClickHouse - always querying in place, so there is no second data store to secure, sync, or pay for, and results are always current. Models and metrics let a data team define official, reusable starting points so self-service stays consistent, collections with permissions organize content, and alerts fire when a metric crosses a threshold. The practical effect is cutting the ad-hoc query queue that lands on the data team, since non-technical staff can answer their own questions. Written in Clojure, licensed AGPL, and shipped as a single JAR or Docker image with an embedded application database - a working BI instance runs before most tools finish their installer - the open-source edition has no limits on users, dashboards, or connected databases, where commercial BI platforms price per viewer as well as per creator.

The open-source PaaS with 55,000+ GitHub stars and the largest one-click service catalog in its class — Coolify gives you the Vercel push-to-deploy workflow on a dedicated server you control. Connect a GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Gitea repository and every push builds and deploys automatically via Nixpacks, a Dockerfile, or Docker Compose, with Traefik or Caddy reverse proxying, automatic Let's Encrypt certificates, and per-branch preview deployments with their own URLs. Databases — PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, Redis — provision in a few clicks, and a catalog of 280+ one-click service templates covers WordPress, n8n, Grafana, MinIO, Plausible, Ollama, and more. One dashboard manages the entire server, with Docker Swarm available for clustering multiple nodes. Backups go to any S3-compatible storage with one-click restore, and a full API supports CI/CD integration. All configuration lives on your own server, so resources keep running even if you stop using Coolify — no vendor lock-in by design. Running on a dedicated VPS with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root access via SSH and browser console. Apache 2.0 licensed.

A private ChatGPT built with Next.js: Lobe Chat is the open-source AI chat interface teams self-host instead. Its main advantage is provider breadth: one interface connects to 40+ model providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Mistral, Groq, AWS Bedrock, Azure, and local models served through Ollama, so you can switch models per conversation and compare outputs. It handles multi-modal work: image recognition, image generation, text-to-speech, and speech-to-text. A plugin system based on function calling and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) adds external tools like web search and code execution. Run it in standalone mode as a single container with settings in browser storage, or in database mode with PostgreSQL and S3-compatible storage for persistent history, multi-user auth, and RAG knowledge bases built from uploaded documents with pgvector retrieval. Because tools arrive through function calling and MCP rather than a proprietary plugin format, custom internal tools can be exposed to the assistant with a standard server over STDIO or HTTP. Hundreds of pre-configured assistant roles import from the community marketplace. For teams the cost model matters: provider API keys billed per token typically undercut a ChatGPT Plus seat per person, and self-hosting keeps API keys, uploaded files, embeddings, and conversation history entirely on your own server.

Your Gmail, Google Workspace, or Outlook inbox, worked by an AI assistant: Inbox Zero sits on top of the account you already have. Its core idea is rules written in plain English - tell the assistant "label invoices and file the PDF to Drive" or "archive cold outreach unless they mention my company" - and it executes against every incoming message. Emails that need a response arrive with a pre-drafted reply written in your tone, learned from your email history and calendar context. Reply Zero tracks what you owe responses to and what you're waiting on; the Bulk Unsubscriber surfaces newsletters you never read (with read-rate analytics) for one-click unsubscribe-and-archive; the Cold Email Blocker auto-archives unsolicited pitches based on your own definition of "cold." Smart Filing routes attachments - receipts, contracts, PDFs - into the right Google Drive or OneDrive folder, and Slack/Telegram integration lets you read, draft, and triage without opening a mail client. Email analytics show top senders and volume trends. It is not a new email client: everything happens in your real mailbox using native filters. Self-hosting means your mail content and the LLM calls that process it run on infrastructure you control.

Contracts signed on your own server: DocuSeal is the most feature-complete open-source, self-hosted alternative to DocuSign. A WYSIWYG builder turns any PDF into a fillable form with 14 field types: signature, initials, date, file upload, checkbox, dropdown, radio, stamp, and more. Documents route to multiple submitters in sequence or parallel, with automated SMTP email notifications, reminders, and a mobile-optimized signing experience that works on any device without an account. Every completed document carries an automatic PDF eSignature with verification and an audit trail. Templates are reusable and can also be generated programmatically - from HTML via API or from PDFs and DOCX files with embedded field tags - and the REST API plus webhooks drive full workflow automation, with embedded signing forms and form builders for React, Vue, Angular, and plain JavaScript. Files store on disk or in S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure. The UI ships in 7 languages with signing in 14. Runs on SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL; AGPL-3.0 licensed with unlimited documents and no per-signature fees.

In-app, website, link, and email surveys feed one open-source experience management platform: Formbricks. Its distinguishing strength is targeted in-app research: a JavaScript SDK triggers surveys on user events and attributes, with segmentation rules like "power users who have not seen a survey in 10 days," so questions reach the right cohort at the right moment instead of a mass email blast. The no-code editor offers 20+ question types including NPS, CSAT, CES, matrix, ranking, and file upload, with skip logic, conditional branching, best-practice templates, and full brand theming. Responses feed built-in analytics with summaries and CSV/JSON export, and integrations push data to Slack, Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable, Zapier, and n8n, with webhooks and an open API on every tier. Because self-hosted surveys load from your own domain rather than a blacklisted third-party script host, ad blockers do not suppress them - in-app surveys reach users that Hotjar-style tools silently miss, which measurably raises response rates. Self-hosting also removes the third-party sub-processor from your privacy policy entirely: survey responses often contain PII, and keeping them on your own server matters for GDPR-sensitive and regulated industries. The Community Edition has no response caps or tier-gated features, so core functionality and your data stay accessible regardless of any subscription. Next.js on PostgreSQL, AGPLv3.

Seven million emails from a single binary peaking at 57 MB of RAM: listmonk is a high-performance newsletter and mailing list manager in Go with PostgreSQL as its only dependency - no Redis, no worker processes, no message broker. The project's own production benchmark sent 7+ million emails with the binary peaking around 57 MB of RAM, and throughput exceeds 100K emails per hour on modest hardware. Campaigns run through a multi-threaded, multi-SMTP queue with round-robin delivery, per-server concurrency, retries, and sliding-window rate limiting across providers like Amazon SES, SendGrid, Mailgun, or your own Postfix relay. Subscribers carry custom JSON attributes and are segmented with raw SQL queries, so any audience Postgres can express, listmonk can target. Templates use Go template syntax with 100+ functions for dynamic per-subscriber content, and the Vue dashboard reports opens, clicks, bounces, and unsubscribes with automated bounce processing. A REST API handles transactional email and programmatic control, a built-in media library hosts campaign assets, and CSV or API import migrates lists from hosted platforms. The economics are the headline: where Mailchimp pricing scales with list size, listmonk plus Amazon SES sends the same volume for hosting cost plus roughly $0.10 per thousand emails - commonly a 95% reduction - and your email list, a core business asset, stays on your own infrastructure. AGPLv3-licensed; bring your own SMTP provider for delivery.

Marketing campaigns and transactional mail from one open-source platform: Notifuse is a modern, self-hosted alternative to Mailchimp, Brevo, and Klaviyo without per-email or per-contact pricing. Built with Go and React on PostgreSQL, it separates concerns cleanly: a drag-and-drop visual builder composes responsive templates from MJML components with Liquid variables like {{ contact.first_name }} and per-template version history; campaigns add A/B testing across subject lines, content, and send times; and a REST transactional API serves application-triggered mail. Delivery routes through your choice of provider - Amazon SES, Mailgun, Postmark, SendGrid, SparkPost, Mailjet, or plain SMTP - with multi-provider failover. Contacts carry custom fields and a full activity timeline (messages, profile changes, webhook events), and real-time segmentation builds dynamic rules over properties, activity, and subscriptions. Event-driven automations create behavioral sequences, a notification center gives recipients self-service preference management, and an S3-compatible file manager handles images with CDN delivery. Multi-tenant workspaces with isolated databases and custom domains suit agencies. Open and click tracking report engagement in real time.

Unlimited domains, unlimited keywords, daily Google position checks with stored history and trend charts: SerpBear is an open-source search engine rank tracker. Retrieval works through your choice of third-party SERP APIs - ScrapingAnt, ScrapingRobot, SerpApi, SearchApi, HasData - or your own proxy IP pool, and a flexible scrape-strategy system (Basic, Custom, or Smart, set globally or per domain) works around Google's removal of the 100-results-per-page parameter by choosing how many pages to check per keyword. Google Search Console integration adds real visit counts, impressions, and click-through rates per tracked keyword and surfaces top-performing pages and countries; Google Ads integration supplies monthly search volumes and auto-generates keyword ideas from your site's content. Email notifications report position changes daily, weekly, or monthly, a built-in REST API feeds dashboards and reporting tools, and data exports to CSV. Built with Next.js on SQLite, deployed via Docker, installable as a PWA on mobile - with no per-keyword or monthly SaaS fees.

Teams tired of paying Salesforce or HubSpot per seat run EspoCRM: an AGPL-licensed PHP application with a fast single-page frontend over a REST API, covering sales, support, and marketing in one uncluttered interface. The sales core is complete - leads, contacts, accounts, opportunities with customizable pipeline stages, kanban views, calendars, meetings, and calls. Email is deeply integrated rather than bolted on: IMAP sync links messages to CRM records automatically, and mass email campaigns run with reusable templates, tracking, and Web-to-Lead forms feeding the funnel. Support teams get case management and a customer portal where clients track their own tickets and access a knowledge base. The real differentiator is the Entity Manager: create custom entities, fields, relationships, and layouts from the admin UI without code, with dynamic logic showing or hiding fields conditionally - EspoCRM is as much a business-application platform as a CRM. Formula scripting handles calculated fields and record automation in the free core; the optional Advanced Pack adds visual BPM process design and workflow rules. Role-based permissions with team and territory scoping, full-text search, reports, and a straightforward REST API for n8n or custom integrations round it out. Runs on PHP 8.3+ with MySQL, MariaDB, or PostgreSQL - unlimited users, zero per-seat fees.
