In their own words
ByteChef
ByteChef is an open-source platform for building AI agents, automating workflows, and connecting SaaS tools, APIs, and databases. Its visual editor provides drag-and-drop construction, flow controls, execution previews, and real-time testing. Workflows can include AI agents configured with models, tools, memory, knowledge bases, and guardrails. ByteChef lists 277 pre-built integrations across areas such as CRMs, communications, databases, file storage, and AI providers; APIs without a connector can be reached through its HTTP Client action. It runs in ByteChef Cloud or on users’ infrastructure, with self-hosting options including Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and DigitalOcean. The Community Edition core and every connector use the Apache 2.0 license. Starter costs $23 per month for 5,000 tasks, one workspace, and seven-day log retention. Growth costs $135 per month for 5,000 tasks, three workspaces, and 30-day retention. Some capabilities, including role-based access control and single sign-on, are marked as coming soon.
