PipesHub is an open-source platform for connecting AI applications to the knowledge stored across your company's business systems.

Connect Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, Microsoft 365, Notion and 50+ other systems. Search across them and get answers with citations, filtered by what each person is allowed to see — or give that same context to your own agents, workflows and MCP clients.

curl -fsSL https://get.pipeshub.com/install | bash

Prefer a fully managed PipesHub without running your own infrastructure? PipesHub Cloud is coming soon.

👉 Join the Cloud Waitlist to get early access.

PipesHub can be run locally or deployed on any server using Docker Compose. The interactive installer handles all configuration — including secrets, graph DB, broker, and image tag selection — and generates a .env for you.

HTTPS on cloud servers: If you deploy PipesHub on a cloud server, use an HTTPS endpoint. Browsers block certain requests over plain HTTP. Use Cloudflare, Nginx, or Traefik to terminate TLS. A white screen after HTTP-only deployment is typically caused by this restriction.

Requires Docker with Compose v2. One command:

curl -fsSL https://get.pipeshub.com/install | bash

This downloads the deployment files for the latest release into ./pipeshub and launches the interactive installer. Open http://localhost:3000 once it finishes.

Prefer to read before running? Download and inspect the script first:

curl -fsSL https://get.pipeshub.com/install -o pipeshub-install.sh
less pipeshub-install.sh        # review it
bash pipeshub-install.sh

The installer will:

• Check Docker, RAM, and disk prerequisites
• Ask whether you want a slim or full deployment
• Let you optionally customise the graph DB, message broker, and KV store
• Generate randomised secrets and write a .env file
• Pull images and start the stack
• Wait for PipesHub to become healthy, verify it is reachable, and print the URL

To build from source, contribute, or pin the installer to your checkout:

git clone https://github.com/pipeshub-ai/pipeshub-ai.git
cd pipeshub-ai

# Same installer, run from the repo root
./install.sh

Building local images from source requires this cloned-repo path (./install.sh --build); the one-command installer above always uses prebuilt images.

Advanced options: CI environment variables, slim vs. full deployment types, manual Compose profile usage, and local source builds are covered in Advanced Deployment Options.

The built-in search experience is one way to use PipesHub. The same connected, permission-filtered context is available to your own agents and applications — over MCP for any compatible client, or through the SDKs when you are calling it from your own code.

An agent connects as a specific person rather than as the application, so it retrieves exactly what that person is allowed to see. Access is resolved when the query runs, against the source system's own permissions, instead of being approximated at build time.

Use PipesHub with any MCP-compatible client to bring your enterprise context into AI workflows. Check the README for setup and usage.

Repository: pipeshub-ai/mcp-server

First, mint a long-lived credential: workspace → Developer settings → Personal Access Tokens → New token. Pick an expiry (30/90/365 days, or never) — this runs as you, so results respect your own per-user permissions, unlike an OAuth app's client-credentials flow.

Three ways to connect, from least to most setup:

1. Attach in the Omnigent web UI (fastest, no clone). Open a session's info panel → Manage MCP Servers → add PipesHub's URL and an Authorization: Bearer <token> header → restart the session.
2. Run the packaged example agent. A ready-made agent bundle (tuned prompt + instructions) ships with Omnigent: PIPESHUB_MCP_URL=... PIPESHUB_MCP_TOKEN=... omnigent run examples/pipeshub/.
3. Use the connect kit in integrations/omnigent/ (setup.sh / run.sh) for CI, service accounts, or password/OAuth client-credentials auth instead of a personal token.

PipesHub provides developer SDKs for Python, TypeScript, and Go to help you integrate quickly. Check the respective SDK repository README for setup and usage details.

PipesHub is an open-source platform for connecting AI applications to the knowledge stored across your company's business systems.

It connects systems such as Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, Microsoft 365 and Notion, then makes what they hold available in two ways: permission-aware search with citations for your team, and trusted context for your AI agents through APIs, SDKs and MCP. Agents get the same governed view of your company's knowledge that a person would, with the same access controls applied, so they can answer from real company data instead of guessing across tools. You can use the built-in search experience, or build your own agents, workflows and applications on top of it.

PipesHub is fully open-source (Apache 2.0) and self-hostable — your data never leaves your infrastructure. It features permission-aware search that enforces source-level access controls, and delivers explainable answers with precise block citations to original documents.

PipesHub has 50+ enterprise connectors with real-time and scheduled indexing. See the connectors overview.

PDF (including scans), Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Google Docs/Sheets/Slides, Markdown, HTML, CSV, plain text, and images. Audio and video can be stored but are not indexed yet. Storage accepts a wider set of MIME types — see Supported MIME Types.

curl -fsSL https://get.pipeshub.com/install | bash

This writes Compose files into ./pipeshub and starts the interactive installer. Open http://localhost:3000 when it finishes. Use HTTPS for cloud deployments — HTTP may cause frontend security blocks.

Developers building from source should clone the repository and run ./install.sh (or ./install.sh --build) from the repo root. See the Deployment Guide.

PipesHub is "Bring Your Own Model" — you can use any LLM provider. Deploy in your VPC with your preferred models.

PipesHub has three parts:

• Web app (Next.js) — search, chat, and admin in the browser.
• API (Node.js) — accounts, permissions, knowledge bases, and files.
• Python services — connectors sync your sources; indexing parses documents; query answers with citations.

Those services call AI models you bring. An embedding model turns parsed text into vectors for search. An LLM writes the cited answer. Use any provider or a local model (Ollama); a local embedding server is the default.

Data sits in a knowledge graph (Neo4j by default, or ArangoDB), a vector store (Qdrant), and MongoDB. Redis is the cache. Files live on disk or object storage. Services hand work to each other over Redis on a local machine, or Kafka in a larger deployment. See the system overview.

PipesHub uses graph-backed retrieval that captures relationships across enterprise data. It uses Neo4j or ArangoDB as graph databases, combined with Qdrant for vector similarity search.

Yes. PipesHub provides an MCP server for integration with any MCP-compatible client. Repository: pipeshub-ai/mcp-server.

PipesHub provides SDKs for:

• Python: pipeshub-ai/pipeshub-sdk-python
• TypeScript: pipeshub-ai/pipeshub-sdk-typescript
• Go: pipeshub-ai/pipeshub-sdk-go

Yes. PipesHub has a no-code agent builder. You can build agents visually and execute actions across enterprise tools without writing code.

PipesHub supports image, diagram, and scanned-file understanding, plus voice-based interaction. It uses Docling and pdfplumber for document parsing, or a multimodal LLM (VLM) for scanned PDF OCR.
