Framework + Platform
What is Operaide?
Operaide is a workflow engine in code, with the platform around it you would otherwise build yourself. You write workflows in TypeScript and ship them as apps, which the platform installs, updates and removes as one thing. Auth, tenancy, roles, audit and storage are already there, so your code stays on the business problem.
What you build with
Each step is an Aktor: a typed function with explicit inputs and outputs. A Reaktor wires them into a graph, and the engine runs whatever is independent in parallel.
- Every Reaktor becomes a REST endpoint, with validation and an OpenAPI spec included
- Each app is one npm package: workflows, UI, roles and its own database
- Operaide Studio in the browser: Claude Code, Codex and Operaide Code know the patterns
import { aktorConst, createAktorComposition, createAktorFunction,} from '@operaide/aktor';import { aktorAICall, aktorAISettingProviderModel, aktorMessagesFromSystemAndUser,} from '@operaide/ai'; const aktorCombine = createAktorFunction('aktorCombine', ({ summary, sentiment }) => ({ summary, sentiment,})); export const aktorAnalyze = createAktorComposition('aktorAnalyze', ({ text }) => { const summary = aktorAICall({ messages: aktorMessagesFromSystemAndUser({ system: aktorConst('Summarize in one sentence.'), user: text, }), providerModel: aktorAISettingProviderModel(), }); const sentiment = aktorAICall({ messages: aktorMessagesFromSystemAndUser({ system: aktorConst('Reply: positive, negative, or neutral.'), user: text, }), providerModel: aktorAISettingProviderModel(), }); return aktorCombine({ summary, sentiment });});summary and sentiment don't depend on each other, so the engine runs both LLM calls concurrently. No Promise.all.
Where it runs
One Docker container behind the reverse proxy of your choice, database included. Not a Kubernetes project.
- A diagram that can't lie: drawn from the code, with no canvas to keep in sync
- A trace per run: every Aktor, its inputs and outputs, under a run ID
- Your LLM is a setting: OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Mistral or Ollama
What it is not
- Not a drag-and-drop builder
- Not an agent that improvises over your data
- Not a library of finished assistants
Community Edition
What is the Community Edition?
The same product as a paid installation: Framework and Platform, nothing removed, no limit lowered. You host it yourself with Docker: locally on your machine or in any cloud.
- Framework and Platform — the full feature set
- No trial, no expiry — the license is the only difference
- Self-hosted via Docker — locally or in any cloud
- Installed in a few minutes
Development and testing: yes.
Production use: no.
Build, test and experiment without limits. For productive use in the enterprise there is the Enterprise Edition.
