Next-gen AI-first workflow automation platform. 100% open-source.
n8n is a popular workflow automation tool—but its "fair-code" license limits full commercial freedom.
u8u is a fully reimagined, production-grade automation platform based on:
- ✅ Truly open-source license (MIT/Apache 2.0) – free for both commercial and personal use.
- 🧠 AI-native architecture – integrates seamlessly with modern AI tools using the Vercel AI SDK.
- ⚙️ Scalable by design – powered by Docker, Next.js 15, and open integration standards.
- 📦 One-click deployment with:
- u8u core engine
- NocoDB – a full open-source Airtable alternative for easy user accessibility
- Supabase - Supabase local/cloud database for Auth and realtime database
- Built-in AI Assistants for:
- Workflow creation
- Custom node code generation
- Frontend/UI development
- 🧱 Next.js 15 frontend for ultra-modern UI/UX
- 🧩 Advanced, white-labeled form builder system with visual editor
- 🔄 Full compatibility with
n8n-style workflow JSON files - 🤖 Support for multiple AI frameworks—not just LangChain
u8u is not a clone—it's an evolution. It brings together open-source values, enterprise readiness, and native AI support in one clean package.
