autokitteh/autokitteh: Durable workflow automation in just a few lines of code

AutoKitteh is a developer platform for workflow automation and
orchestration. It is an easy-to-use, code-based alternative to no/low-code
platforms (such as Zapier, Workato, Make.com, n8n) with unlimited flexibility.

You write in vanilla Python, we make it durable 🪄

In addition, it is a durable execution platform for long-running and
reliable workflows. It is based on Temporal, hiding
many of its infrastructure and coding complexities.

AutoKitteh can be self-hosted, and has a cloud offering as well.

Once installed, AutoKitteh is a scalable “serverless” platform (with batteries
included) for DevOps, FinOps, MLOps, SOAR, productivity tasks, critical
backend business processes, and more.

Platform: A scalable server that provides interfaces for building projects
(workflows), deploying them, triggering the code with webhooks or schedulers,
executing the code as durable workflows, and managing these workflows.

API: AutoKitteh is an API-first platform. All services are available via
gRPC / HTTP.

Built-in integrations: Slack, GitHub, Twilio, ChatGPT, Gemini, Gmail,
Google Calendar, HTTP, gRPC and many more. It’s easy to add new integrations.

Supported programming languages: Python, Starlark (a dialect of Python),
and JavaScript (coming soon).

(in detail).
