Paperclip is an open‑source web application that lets teams orchestrate, monitor, and budget AI agents as if they were employees. It provides a React dashboard and a Node.js backend for goal alignment, governance, and cost tracking.

Use cases

  • Orchestrate a team of AI agents to run a business process.
  • Track goals, budgets, and performance of multiple AI bots from a single dashboard.
  • Assign roles and responsibilities to different AI agents for collaborative tasks.
  • Monitor and control AI agent costs and output in real‑time.
  • Integrate various AI providers (Claude, Codex, etc.) into a unified workflow.

When to choose

  • You need a centralized UI to manage many AI agents across different providers.
  • Your organization wants to treat AI bots like employees with budgets and governance.
  • You require a self‑hosted solution that can be customized with your own agents.

When to avoid

  • You only need a single AI assistant or simple API calls.
  • You prefer a lightweight CLI tool rather than a full web dashboard.
  • You lack the resources to run a Node.js server and React UI.
