Summary
Quick verdict: a smart, open-source answer to agent output getting lost in chat histories: agents like Claude Code, Codex and Cursor write into shared tables, docs and apps your team keeps. The free cloud plan and free self-hosting make it easy to try; it’s young, so expect rough edges.
- Busabase bills itself as the Busabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:ldquo;Base for AgentsBusabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:rdquo; (its homepage headline rotates between Busabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:ldquo;Skills BaseBusabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:rdquo; and Busabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:ldquo;Data BaseBusabase calls itself “the Skills Base for Agents”:rdquo;): an open-source database and workspace for AI agents.
- Instead of agent work disappearing in chat logs, what agents produce is saved as records, docs, skills and apps your team can reuse, so the work stays with the company.
- It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw and other agents, through plugins, MCP and an API.
- A review queue lets people approve what agents write before it counts.
- You can self-host it for free with no seat limit, or use Busabase Cloud: a free plan, then Plus at $12 and Pro at $24 per seat a month ($10 and $20 billed yearly).
- It launched on Product Hunt on October 9, 2026.

Features
From busabase.com and busabase.com/pricing, October 13, 2026.
- Bases: tables with fixed fields, so every agent reads and writes the same data.
- Docs, drives and forms: a shared knowledge base and file storage for agent output.
- Skills and workflows: save what worked so agents can repeat it (Plus and up).
- Instant Apps / AirApps: turn data into simple apps that open in Busabase with nothing to deploy.
- Review queue: people approve agent writes before they count.
- Works with your agents: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw and more, via plugins, MCP, OpenAPI and webhooks.
- Open source: self-host in your own network so data never leaves it.
Who it’s for
- Teams using coding or AI agents daily who want their output saved in one shared place.
- Solo builders who want a free place to keep what their agents produce.
- Companies with strict data rules that can self-host.
- Not for you if you don’t use AI agents, or need a mature tool with a long track record.

The catch
It’s a young product, and per-seat pricing adds up for teams.
- The code repo dates only to June 2026 and it launched publicly in October 2026, so expect changes and rough edges.
- The free cloud plan caps you at 1 space, 3 seats and 5,000 records; skills, workflows and MCP need Plus.
- Self-hosting is free but you run and maintain the server yourself.
Verdict
- Free / self-host: the right start to see if agents writing to shared tables fits how you work.
- Plus ($12/seat, $10 yearly): for a small team that wants skills, workflows and MCP.
- Pro ($24/seat, $20 yearly): when you hit Plus limits or want AirApps and priority support.
Worth it if: your team runs AI agents every day and you want their output saved as shared, reusable data.
Skip it if: you don’t use agents yet, or you need a long-proven tool.
