MaxKB

An Open-Source AI Assistant for Enterprise

Freemium

Description

MaxKB (Max Knowledge Brain) is presented as an open-source AI assistant designed primarily for enterprise use. It incorporates Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, which helps in reducing hallucinations common in large language models by grounding responses in provided documents or web content. The tool supports uploading various document types or automatically crawling online documents for knowledge base creation, including features for automatic text splitting and vectorization.

Beyond RAG, MaxKB features an agentic workflow engine with a function library and MCP tool-use capabilities, allowing for the orchestration of complex AI processes tailored to specific business scenarios. It emphasizes seamless, zero-coding integration with third-party business systems, aiming to quickly add intelligent Q&A features to existing applications. Furthermore, MaxKB is model-agnostic, supporting integration with a range of private large language models (like DeepSeek, Llama, Qwen) and public ones (such as OpenAI, Claude, Gemini). Both its free Open Source Edition and paid Pro Edition are self-hosted solutions.
