Twenty

Open source · OSI-approvedStatus: unknown

A modern CRM that does not fight the way you work

Twenty rebuilds CRM around the interaction patterns people already know from modern productivity tools: keyboard navigation, inline editing, flexible record views, and a data model you can extend without a consultant.

It is opinionated about staying legible. Records, fields, and relations behave predictably, and the whole thing can run on your own infrastructure with your customer data inside your own database.

Decisive facts

Keyboard-first navigation with inline record editing
Custom objects, fields, and relations without code
Kanban and table views over the same records
GraphQL and REST APIs over the full data model
Self-hostable with Docker

LicenseApache-2.0

Parlant addresses the problem that stops most support agents from shipping: a model that is helpful ninety-five percent of the time is not safe to put in front of customers. It manages behaviour through explicit, context-matched guidelines rather than one long prompt.

Novu takes the notification logic that usually ends up scattered across a codebase - which channel, which template, which quiet hours, which digest window - and puts it behind one API and one workflow editor.

Collaborative whiteboard with a hand-drawn look

LicenseMIT

Excalidraw's sketchy rendering is not decoration. Diagrams that look provisional invite comment, where a crisp vector diagram signals a decision already made, so it is unusually good at the early part of a design conversation.
