Build AI Workflow Automations Without Writing Code

Heym is built from the ground up around AI. Other platforms now cover parts of the same surface area, but Heym keeps multi-agent orchestration, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, node-level guardrails, built-in RAG, MCP support, and a portable skills system in one runtime designed for AI workflows first.

Yes. Heym is source-available and free to self-host under the Commons Clause + MIT licensing model. You can deploy it on your own infrastructure without licensing fees. Commercial licensing and enterprise support are available for organizations that need those additional rights and services.

Absolutely. Heym is designed for self-hosting. You can boot it locally with run.sh, deploy it with Docker Compose, use the published container image, or run it on Kubernetes. Your data stays in your infrastructure, giving you complete control and data sovereignty.

Heym supports OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-3.5), Ollama (for local LLMs), vLLM, Cohere, and any OpenAI-compatible API. You can also configure custom endpoints for your own models.

The AI Assistant lets you describe what you want in natural language or use voice input. It analyzes your request, generates appropriate nodes and edges, and applies them directly to the canvas. When your workflow already includes Agent skills, Heym keeps the builder context focused by sending only each skill's SKILL.md instead of large Python or binary attachments.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standardized protocol for connecting AI assistants to tools and data. Heym supports MCP in two ways: as a client (Agent nodes can connect to any MCP server and gain all its tools), and as a server (your Heym workflows can be exposed as an MCP server for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other clients).

Heym has built-in vector store management with QDrant. You can upload PDFs, Markdown, CSV, JSON, and other document types. The RAG node performs semantic search across your documents and returns relevant context that flows directly into your LLM or Agent nodes.

Skills are portable capability bundles. Each skill consists of a SKILL.md instruction file plus optional Python tools. You can drag and drop a .zip or .md file onto an Agent node, or use the built-in AI Skill Builder to draft and revise skills with live file previews. Skills enable code reuse and sharing across workflows and teams.

We love contributions! You can contribute by reporting bugs, suggesting features, submitting pull requests, improving documentation, or sharing your workflows with the community. Join our Discord to connect with other contributors and get started.

Yes! Enterprise licensing includes professional support with SLA guarantees. Contact us at [email protected] for information about commercial use, custom development, and priority support.

The Commons Clause is a license condition that restricts selling the software or offering it as a paid service. You are free to use, modify, and distribute the software, but you may not resell it. This keeps Heym transparent and accessible while preventing commercial redistribution.

Getting started is easy. Clone the repository, copy the example environment file, and run the setup script. The script starts PostgreSQL, runs database migrations, and starts both the frontend and backend servers. If you prefer a prebuilt install, you can also use the published container image. Open your browser at the configured port (default: 4017) and you're ready to build.
