Show HN: Budibase Agents Beta – model-agnostic AI agents for internal workflows

Hi there, Mike here from Budibase. We’ve recently launched AI Agents into Beta, alongside our existing open-source app-building and automation tools. We built Budibase Agents for teams that want to leverage AI within real-world workflows, using their own LLMs, data, and APIs. Because of this, our Agents can be powered by any LLM with an OpenAI-compatible API, including open-source and locally-hosted models. This means you can build Agents that connect to your existing toolstack, within your own environment. Some more details: - Agents' behavior is configured using natural language instructions, within existing Budibase Workspaces. - You explicitly control which data sources, APIs, and automations an agent can access. - End-users can interact with your agents via Budibase Chat, or using existing chat tools like Slack and Discord. - Agents

can be called from Automations, and vice versa, enabling complex workflows, including interacting with end-user apps for manual human approvals. The Budibase Agents Beta is available now for all self-hosted and cloud users. As this is a Beta release, we’re actively looking for input and feedback on how we can improve Agents, in terms of experience and functionality for building using AI within real-life workflows.
