Open source tools for enterprise intelligence
Viglet gives any team enterprise search, data exchange and content management, without vendor lock-in or enterprise pricing.
Democratize enterprise-grade software
Search, content and data pipelines usually come from proprietary platforms with enterprise price tags. Viglet gives any team, whatever its budget, the same kind of tools, with full control over its infrastructure and data.
We maintain everything under the Apache 2.0 license, so you can deploy on-premise, in the cloud, or in air-gapped environments without asking permission.

Founder of Viglet · CEO of Sumware
“I started Viglet to give any team enterprise-grade search and content tooling without vendor lock-in: fully open source, yours to own and run on your own infrastructure.”
Viglet is an independent open-source project. Sumware, my consultancy, is one of its solution partners. It helps teams that want implementation, custom development or an SLA run Viglet in production.
