simba

What it does

Customer service AI for teams who want the internals visible: evaluation sits at the centre of the design, so you can quantify how well it answers and iterate, rather than trusting a black box. Self-hosted, embeddable in a site, grounded in your own material. Customer messages reach whichever model you configure, and anything touching prices, contracts or guarantees needs a human handoff — a wrong answer there reads as a company commitment. Apache-2.0.

simba FAQ

Is simba free?

simba 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 simba?

It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.

Does simba work on a phone?

No. It needs a computer.

Can I use simba 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.
