Busy: open-source AI agent hub you deploy on your own Vercel account
evilrabbit_ · x · 2026-11-10
Developer MatiSolina launched Busy, an open-source alternative to hosted AI bot services like Grok Bot, Duet and Dots, with the pitch "Fork your AI team": you own your data, models and bots.
Key points:
- Self-hosted on Vercel: deploys to your own Vercel account; nothing leaves without your approval
- Every bot gets its own computer: each bot has its own sandbox, memory and tools from a single template, with instructions, tools, memory, subagents split into editable files
- Durable sessions: one long-lived chat per bot, with run data retained so streams can be replayed after the app closes
- Practical bots: demos include contract drafting, email triage, a bookkeeper awaiting approval on bills, recruiter intros, and scheduled releases
- Real coding tasks: an Engineer bot cloned a repo, edited 3 files (+48 −6), passed 42 tests, and opened a pull request
Source is on GitHub (MatiSolina/busy), built on Vercel AI Gateway, with desktop, web and phone clients.
