In short

Alfera is the AI coworker your whole team shares. It has a company brain that syncs your apps, 3,000+ app connections shared per person or per team, permissions on every action, and it works in Slack, WhatsApp, email and the web app. It starts work by itself, runs on any model, and it is open source: self-host it in one click or start free on Alfera Cloud.

  • Against closed products such as Viktor, Lindy, Claude Cowork or Copilot: the same kind of coworker plus a company brain, open source and free to start.
  • Against personal open-source agents such as OpenClaw or Hermes Agent: the same idea, built for a whole team.
  • Against workflow builders such as n8n or Dify: a coworker your team talks to, not a workflow you build.
