Open-source, self-hosted, BYOK. Multi-model AI Council turns meetings into briefs, briefs into tickets, tickets into shipped work. Your exec approves from Slack.
$ git clone https://github.com/workforce0/workforce0 $ cd workforce0 && docker compose up
How it works
Four steps. Each is observable, auditable, replayable. No black box.
Upload a recording, paste a transcript, or dial in by phone. Whisper + domain-aware prompts turn audio into structured notes.
Chief-of-staff agent drafts a brief, asks clarifying questions, and breaks approved work into steps with roles and skills.
Specialist agents (BA, architect, dev, QA) pull tickets. Dev code-gen runs on your laptop via Claude Code / Cursor — code never transits.
Summaries post to Slack / WhatsApp / Teams. Your exec approves with a reply. The web UI is for audit — not daily work.
Who it's for
Workforce0 splits setup from day-to-day use. One of you installs it. The rest of your team never touches the web UI.
You're comfortable with Docker, API keys, and env vars. You spin up the stack, paste BYOK keys, wire Jira / Slack / Google once. After that, the product runs itself.
Execs, PMs, operators. They get brief summaries in their comms channel, approve with a reply, and move on. The web UI is audit-only — they rarely open it.
Features
Built from the ground up as self-hosted, provider-agnostic, audit-friendly. Each feature is optional — the parts you don't turn on don't run.
Every planner call runs through consensus across Claude, GPT, and Gemini. One provider down? The council keeps planning.
Use the API keys you already pay for. No pay-per-token reselling, no hidden inference fees, no lock-in.
Slack, WhatsApp, Teams, Google Chat. The exec never opens the app — approvals happen in the room they already work in.
Visual setup for Jira, Google Chat, Drive, GitHub, Twilio. Get-your-API-key buttons that open the right vendor page.
Gemini Live + Twilio Media Stream. Call a number, have a meeting, get a brief. Nothing to install on the attendees' side.
Native AST extraction across TS, JS, Python. God-nodes feed the planner so decompositions target the parts of the repo that matter.
Prisma middleware enforces tenant and project scopes on every read. Audit UI shows the decision trail for every approval.
The dev agent uses your Claude Code / Cursor subscription via a local daemon. Production code never leaves your machine.
A vendored library of playbooks and specialists the chief-of-staff can pick from. Add your own without forking.
Works with your stack
Every integration is optional and disabled gracefully when keys aren't set. No 'sign up to see what's supported.'
Plus local models via Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Why open-source
AI platforms that capture your meetings, your decisions, and your code pipeline are too important to rent. Workforce0 is MIT-licensed software you clone and run.
Transcripts, briefs, approvals, comms history — all live in your Postgres. We never see any of it because we don't run anything.
BYOK means you pay OpenAI / Anthropic / Google directly at their actual rates. No resold tokens, no monthly SaaS tier.
Vanilla Postgres, Redis, Node. Run it on k8s, Fly, Railway, a Hetzner box, or your laptop. We don't own your runway.
Standing on shoulders
Workforce0 is a synthesis, not an original thought. Credit where it's due.
The god-nodes idea, EXTRACTED vs INFERRED edge confidence tags, and the graph-based planner enrichment come from safishamsi/graphify.
The 'never mutate past messages' rule that keeps Anthropic's prompt cache warm comes from NousResearch/hermes-agent.
Our 'Aperture' design system borrows heavily from the visual discipline of Linear, Raycast, and Vercel.
A fresh install on a laptop takes about a minute. First brief approved in Slack: about a day.
