AI agents
What it does
A workspace for assembling AI workflows visually, conversationally or in code, with 1,000+ integrations covering Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce and databases, plus built-in tables, file storage and knowledge bases so the data lives beside the workflow. Runs, logs and schedules are monitored in the same place. Cloud-hosted or self-hosted via bun. Each integration hands the agent whatever that account can do, so scope credentials tightly, and watch scheduled runs — they bill quietly. Apache-2.0.

sim FAQ
- Is sim free?
- sim itself is free, but it needs an API key for an external AI service. That service charges separately, though some have a free tier.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use sim?
- It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
- Does sim work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use sim commercially?
- The licence is Apache-2.0, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
