Bifrost
What Bifrost is
Bifrost is an open-source, self-hosted platform for building, running, packaging, and owning reusable automation, apps, agents, and integrations. It targets managed service providers and integration teams. Workflows are written in Python and can start from forms, schedules, events, agents, APIs, or other workflows. They can connect to external APIs and MCP servers, or be exposed as callable MCP tools. Bifrost supports portable web apps, dynamic forms, organization-scoped functionality, and described data isolation between tenants. Apps, workflows, agents, and tables can be bundled into installable solutions from a zip file or GitHub repository. It provides execution history, traces, cost monitoring, and usage and ROI reporting. Sign-in supports Google, Microsoft, OIDC, and passkeys. Deployment uses Docker Compose, with Windows 11 instructions using PowerShell, Docker Desktop, and WSL2. The free Bifrost plan costs nothing, with no per-seat pricing.
