## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 78/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:39:23.370411+00:00)
- activity 100, release rhythm 88, longevity 11

- flags: young, no_license
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
Heym is an AI-native, low-code workflow automation platform with a visual drag-and-drop editor for building agentic systems. It provides LLM and Agent nodes, RAG over Qdrant or Postgres/pgvector, MCP client/server support, human-in-the-loop approvals, execution traces, and evals, and is source-available and fully self-hostable via Docker Compose or Kubernetes.

## Use cases
- automate business processes with ai agents
- build ai workflows without coding
- orchestrate multiple llm agents
- self-host an n8n alternative
- add human approval checkpoints to automations
- build rag pipelines over company knowledge
- connect mcp tools to agents
- generate workflows from natural language

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted, AI-first workflow platform with agents, RAG, and MCP built in
- you need human-in-the-loop approvals, tracing, and evals for production automations
- you prefer visual low-code building with optional natural-language workflow generation
- you want data and automations to stay on your own infrastructure

## When to avoid
- you need a permissively licensed tool - Heym is source-available with a Commons Clause condition
- you only need simple trigger-action automations without AI, where lighter tools suffice
- you want a fully managed SaaS rather than self-hosting
- you need a mature, long-proven platform rather than a young project (v0.0.x)
