A visual platform for building, deploying, and collaborating on AI agents—without writing code
The AI agent landscape is evolving rapidly. While platforms like OpenAI's AgentKit and n8n offer automation capabilities, building production-ready AI agents that scale requires purpose-built tooling. That's where Ekinox comes in.
Ekinox is an open-source platform designed from the ground up for building, deploying, and monitoring AI agent workflows. Whether you're creating RAG systems, multi-agent architectures, or business automation workflows, Ekinox gives you the tools to move from prototype to production quickly.
Why Ekinox?
🎯 Built for AI Agents, Not Retrofitted
Unlike general automation tools that added AI as an afterthought, Ekinox was designed specifically for agentic workflows. Every feature—from the visual canvas to execution logging—is optimized for AI agent development.
🤖 AI Copilot: Your In-Editor Assistant
Ekinox includes an intelligent AI assistant that helps you build workflows faster. Using the @
context menu, reference workflows, blocks, knowledge bases, docs, templates, and execution logs. Copilot understands your entire workspace and can:
- Explain complex concepts
- Suggest best practices
- Make changes to your workflow (with your approval)
- Debug issues using execution logs
This dramatically accelerates development compared to building from scratch.
Core Features
Visual Workflow Builder
Drag-and-drop canvas for building complex agent workflows. Supports:
- Multi-agent systems
- Conditional logic & routing
- Loops & parallel execution
- Sub-workflows for modularity
80+ Built-in Integrations
Connect with multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Cerebras, Ollama), communication tools (Gmail, Slack, Teams, Telegram, WhatsApp), productivity apps (Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable), and developer tools (GitHub, GitLab).
Intelligent Knowledge Base
Powered by pgvector, Ekinox's knowledge base provides semantic search that understands meaning, not just keywords. Upload PDFs, Word docs, Excel files, Markdown—Ekinox automatically:
- Chunks documents intelligently
- Generates vector embeddings
- Enables natural language queries
- Supports multi-language understanding
Perfect for building RAG agents with context-aware precision.
Pre-Built Templates
Get started quickly with production-ready templates across Marketing, Sales, Finance, Support, and AI categories. Each template is customizable and created by the Ekinox team and community.
Enterprise-Grade Logging
Track every detail of workflow execution:
- Block-level logs with timing & duration
- Token usage & cost per execution
- Detailed error traces & trace spans
- Integration with Copilot for debugging
This observability is essential for production AI agents.
Real-Time Team Collaboration
Multiple team members can work simultaneously on workflows with real-time editing, commenting, and permissions management. Perfect for teams building complex agent systems together.
Flexible Deployment
- Cloud-hosted: Managed service with SOC2 & HIPAA compliance
- Self-hosted: Run on your own infrastructure for complete control
Workflows can be triggered via:
- Chat interfaces
- REST APIs
- Webhooks
- Scheduled jobs
- External events (Slack, GitHub, etc.)
