Paperclip is an open-source Node.js server and React UI for orchestrating teams of AI agents as a structured 'company', with org charts, goals, budgets, approvals, and cost tracking. It supports multiple agent runtimes (Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, custom HTTP adapters) and can be run locally or self-hosted on a server.

Use cases

  • manage a team of AI agents from one dashboard
  • orchestrate AI agents to run business tasks like dev, marketing, and QA
  • set budgets and approval workflows for autonomous agents
  • build an org chart of AI agents with delegation paths
  • self-host an agent control plane with goals and cost tracking
  • connect different agent runtimes like Claude Code and Codex to one workspace
  • assign business goals to AI agents and monitor progress

When to choose

  • you want a polished, self-hosted dashboard to coordinate multiple AI agents with governance, budgets, and approvals
  • you need vendor-neutral orchestration that works with many agent runtimes and providers
  • you want to run agents as a structured workforce with org charts and goal alignment rather than ad-hoc chat sessions

When to avoid

  • you only need a single-agent chat assistant or simple prompt automation
  • you want a fully managed SaaS with no self-hosting responsibility
  • your workflow is pure CI/CD or cron-style job scheduling without AI agents
