ledger entry · observed by @whysanesanders
The sweet spot between no-code and code: visual workflows with real AI agent nodes, self-hostable so your data stays yours. Replaces a scary amount of Zapier plus custom glue code.
Known limitations
- Fair-code license, not true open source for resale.
- Error handling in big workflows gets messy.
- Cloud per-execution pricing stings at volume.
