Awesome open-source alternatives to SaaS

Awesome

Awesome list of open-source startup alternatives to established SaaS products. Maintained by folks at Runa Capital

Also checkout our ROSS index: fastest-growing open-source startups, every quarter.

Criteria

Open-source company is added to the list if:

  1. Its product is strongly based on an open-source repo
  2. It has a well-known closed-source competitor, solving a similar business problem
  3. It is a private for-profit company, founded in the last 10 years
  4. Its repo has 100+ stars on GitHub

Things change really fast in the startup world, so this list can neither be fully complete, nor 100% up to date.

Don't hesitate to contribute and add new startups. Let's build the most comprehensive list together.

Any questions or suggestions? Feel free to DM project maintainer @garrrikkotua


Startup List

All startups in the list are sorted by categories and sorted in alphabetical order. If you click on the stars badge you will get to the product's repo. Have a good search!
