Budibase
What it is
Budibase is a platform for building AI agents, web apps, and automations from team data, language models, and APIs. Agents can answer questions, handle requests, and take actions across business systems using connected data and automations. Its App Builder creates end-user web apps, while automation workflows use triggers and action steps for tasks such as approvals, routing, and notifications. Budibase connects to databases, AI models, business apps, and REST APIs; listed connections include Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Google, Mistral, OpenAI, Jira, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. It is open source and can be self-hosted, deployed on-premise, or used through its cloud platform, with Kubernetes and Docker deployment also described. Budibase states that it is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant. Its access controls include role-based permissions, single sign-on, audit logs, SCIM and Active Directory integration, environment variables, and user groups. A free plan and 14-day trial are available; paid plans start at $19/mo. Cloud plans vary in workspace and log-retention limits.
