salt.md
salt.md is an open-source, self-hosted workspace where your team and its AI agents work on the same documents and databases, under the same permissions and with the same history. A slash-menu block editor handles checklists, tables, callouts, columns, code, diagrams, and embeds. Page links, backlinks, and a graph view show how pages connect. Any page can become a collection with typed properties like select, date, person, relation, rollup, and formula, shown as a table, board, list, gallery, calendar, timeline, or form. Ctrl+K searches titles, body text, row values, and the text inside uploaded PDFs. Two people can type in the same paragraph at once with live cursors. Comments, page history, and an activity log record who changed what. Publish a page as a read-only link with an optional password and expiry, or hand people without accounts a form that adds rows to a collection. Agents connect over MCP with 33 tools for searching, writing, building databases, and commenting, using tokens scoped to one workspace or read-only. Signed webhooks, iCalendar feeds, and Google or Microsoft sign-in link it to the rest of your stack. Import Markdown, ZIP archives, or a Notion export, and export pages as Markdown, HTML, or PDF. Use it for handbooks, meeting notes, project boards, and a knowledge base your assistants can read.

Bytedesk
Support teams handling website live chat, email queues, and social messaging channels gain a unified, AI-assisted helpdesk in Bytedesk. Incoming conversations from web widgets, mobile SDKs, WhatsApp, WeChat, and email flow into a single agent workbench equipped with skill-group routing, VIP priority rules, and automatic human handoff. Customer-facing AI agents connect to Ollama, DeepSeek, OpenAI, Qwen, and Zhipu models to answer recurring inquiries using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over internal knowledge bases and FAQ libraries, complete with function calling and Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool execution. Complex escalations convert into SLA-tracked tickets with custom approval workflows, or transition directly into browser-based WebRTC video calls, screen sharing sessions, and FreeSwitch voice call center queues. Supervisors track real-time queue depth, bot resolution rates, token usage, automated AI quality scores, and customer satisfaction surveys from the analytics dashboard. Native client SDKs for Web, iOS, Android, Flutter, UniApp, WordPress, and WooCommerce make embedding customizable chat widgets straightforward across any storefront.

Ideon
Scattered browser tabs, buried wiki folders, and disconnected issue trackers fragment engineering context across too many tools, which is why Ideon unifies your repositories, notes, and tasks on a shared infinite canvas. Rather than forcing projects into rigid folder hierarchies, you arrange interactive blocks spatially on a two-dimensional map where related documents, checklists, calendar schedules, and code references sit right beside one another. Teams can embed live repository cards and open issue streams directly from GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, and Forgejo onto the workspace, keeping code status visible alongside architecture documentation. Rich content blocks render Markdown notes with threaded comments, Mermaid flowcharts, uploaded files, images, and bookmarked links on the same board. Real-time multiplayer collaboration lets teammates edit blocks simultaneously, follow live cursors across the canvas, and map system designs together without edit conflicts. Built-in Time Travel snapshots capture historical states of the workspace so you can scrub backward to review how a project evolved or trace past design decisions. You can even synchronize an entire project canvas directly to a Git repository, storing notes and spatial block layouts as versioned files.

LinkAce
Preventing silent link rot across research libraries, LinkAce captures, indexes, and permanently archives web discoveries into searchable multi-user collections with automated Wayback Machine snapshots. Curators bookmark articles, documentation, tools, and media using custom browser bookmarklets or quick-add input fields that automatically scrape page titles and metadata descriptions. The built-in link monitor continuously checks saved endpoints for HTTP status anomalies, alerting curators whenever destinations move, throw server errors, or vanish from the live internet. For long-term preservation, the system dispatches automated backup requests to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine to capture historical copies of critical research material. Curators organize their library using nested lists and granular tag hierarchies, switching seamlessly between compact tables, detailed reading feeds, and visual card layouts. Teams and households can create separate user accounts to collaborate on shared collections, delegating read-only or editing privileges per list. The platform also generates individualized RSS feeds for public or private bookmark streams, synchronizes external data through a tokenized REST API, and dispatches automated database dumps to AWS S3 storage buckets.

Deft
One self-hosted workspace holds your team's chat, tasks, notes, and calendar, and Deft lets AI agents work in it beside your people. People get real-time chat with spaces, direct messages, threads, mentions, reactions, files, and presence. Tasks open as Board, Table, Timeline, or Calendar views, with dependencies, subtasks, recurrence, and bulk actions. Notes, decisions, and channel memory become durable knowledge, with graph views and links back to the source conversation. Native calendar events sit beside read-only ICS subscriptions. Agent employees can join channels and receive task assignments. Tag the built-in assistant Defty to draft a task, answer a workspace question, or take a governed action, then review the proposal in an approval card before anything changes. Personal connections let Codex, Claude, ChatGPT, and other streamable HTTP MCP clients act as the signed-in user within revocable scopes. Approval tiers, trust levels, token scopes, revocation, activity history, and action receipts record who or what acted and what changed. OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and local Ollama-style models are supported providers. Chat, tasks, notes, and calendars keep working with no AI key. Modules add company-specific records, relationships, and views, with a bundled Contacts module as the first example.

CollabMD
Your team's knowledge already lives in a folder of Markdown files, and CollabMD turns that exact folder into a shared workspace everyone can edit together in the browser, with nothing to migrate and no database swallowing your notes. Point it at an Obsidian vault, a plain docs directory, or a git-backed repository and the filesystem stays the source of truth: files are never moved, renamed, or deleted unless someone does it deliberately in the app. Several people can type in the same document at once with live cursors and presence indicators, follow a collaborator's view while they present, and drop comments anchored to a specific line or text selection instead of scattering feedback across chat threads. Edits made outside the browser, in Obsidian or any text editor, sync back into open documents automatically, so local and remote work never fork. Diagrams are first-class citizens: Mermaid, PlantUML, Structurizr C4 models, Excalidraw canvases, and draw.io files all open and render beside your prose, and a git panel lets you review changes and commit with a message without leaving the tab. Global full-text search, wiki-links with backlinks, team chat, file uploads, and optional password or Google sign-in round out a workspace that respects how your files already live.
