Papermark
Find out who opened a shared document and how long each page was read. Tracked links and data rooms, an AGPL core, and self-hosting that needs hosted services.
The Heading, Not the Weather: Why Your Inability to Hold a Vision Is Destroying Your Teams
Without a clear heading, agility turns into drifting. Why startups and small companies that keep changing direction end up losing their strongest people.
Codeberg
Free Git hosting for open source projects, run by a Berlin non-profit on Forgejo. Free licences only, and no projects written mostly by generative AI tools.
Matomo
Measure site traffic on your own server: GPL web analytics in PHP with server log import, paid heatmap plugins and a CNIL mode for consent-free tracking.
PostHog
Track what users do inside your app and test features behind flags: open source product analytics, in the cloud or self-hosted up to about 100k events a month.
Stirling PDF
Sign, redact, OCR and convert PDFs on your own machine or server instead of an online service. Open core, free up to five users, with automation capped monthly.
Meilisearch
Typo-tolerant search-as-you-type for sites and apps: a Rust engine under MIT with hybrid vector search, where replication needs the paid Enterprise Edition.
n8n
Chain APIs, databases and AI agents on a self-hosted canvas. The fair-code license allows internal use but no resale as SaaS; SSO and Git versioning are paid.
Penpot
Interface mockups that hand developers SVG, CSS and HTML: an open source Figma alternative, used in the cloud or self-hosted with PostgreSQL and Valkey.
Seafile
Sync files block by block to your own server, in libraries you can lock with a password. Community runs in Docker; full-text search and S3 storage are Pro-only.
