Twake is now open source
For several years, the Twake team has been working hard to create high-performance collaborative software. Today, I'm really excited to announce that Twake is open source !
What is Twake
Twake is an open source alternative to Teams and Slack (https://github.com/TwakeApp/Twake). We offer an extended team messaging service through additional modules (player, calendar, task manager).
Twake goes open source
We have just released our software in open source. This is a big first for us. We are discovering this wide and benevolent world. We see the great number of benefits that open source brings to the project. Within a few days, we have received a lot of support from the community. We can also bring a lot of transparency on the development of Twake.
Business model
Like any business, Twake has to make money. This is one of the difficulties for open source companies, it is necessary to innovate and find a business model that corresponds to the ambitions and values of the company. We took the decision to open source Twake's code in its entirety, that means that all the features are accessible. In addition, we host a SaaS version which is monetized. In this way, we can offer our entire platform to the community and ensure the sustainability of the company.
