Open-source startups in AI apps and agents
Chat apps, agents and assistants people actually use, plus the frameworks they are built on. 85 open-source startups in this directory are filed under AI apps and agents. 64 pushed code within 30 days of the snapshot of 2026-09-22, 6 have been quiet for 31–120 days, 15 have not pushed in over 120 days. The category is chosen by Jev, TypeSafe’s classifier, reading only the repository’s own name, description and homepage — one category per project, so something that spans two appears under whichever the classifier judged closest.
64 of 85 pushed within 30 days of the snapshot of 2026-09-22. How we measure it →
The list
All 85, most-starred first.
The last column is the most recent push GitHub reported to us on 2026-09-22. It counts a push to any branch, by a person or a bot — it is not a claim that anyone is maintaining the project, and a quiet repository may be a finished one. The “built for” column and the “alternative to” chips are Jev’s answers about the same repository description, published with the rest of them.
