Self-hosted CRM your AI agents can work in

Alternative to HubSpot, Salesforce

Relaticle is a self-hosted, open-source CRM for developer-led teams and AI-forward small businesses that want customer records their AI assistants can work with directly. It tracks companies, people, opportunities, tasks, and notes in one web app, and exposes that data to a built-in AI assistant plus external agents over MCP and a REST API.[1][2]

Quick verdict

Developer-led teams and AI-forward small businesses that want a self-hosted CRM their assistants can read and write benefit most from Relaticle. Its MCP server and REST API let Claude, ChatGPT, and other agents list, create, and update CRM records, while custom fields and role-based permissions keep the data model flexible. Teams with no one to run a server, or buyers expecting guided onboarding and built-in reporting, should choose a managed SaaS CRM such as HubSpot instead. If you can operate Docker and PostgreSQL and want AI agents working from live customer data, shortlist Relaticle; if you need hands-off hosting with guided setup, start with HubSpot's free CRM.[1][2][3][4]

Key features

  • Agent-native MCP server Agent-native MCP server: connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, or any MCP client to list and search records, read schemas, create and update entries, and review pipeline data, authenticated with OAuth 2.1 or scoped personal access tokens.[1]

  • Rela, the built-in AI assistant Rela, the built-in AI assistant: ask questions in plain language, such as what is overdue this week, and review each proposed change on an approval card before it applies to tasks, people, and other records.[1]

  • Custom fields without migrations Custom fields without migrations: add text, date, currency, select, and linked-record fields with per-field encryption and workspace settings, so the data model evolves without database migrations.[1]

  • Full REST API Full REST API: read, write, and analyze CRM data programmatically with schema access, activity history, and pipeline analysis for integrations outside the MCP path.[1][2]

  • Core sales objects and pipelines Core sales objects and pipelines: manage companies, people, opportunities, tasks, and notes with pipeline boards, close dates, amounts, and account ownership in one shared view.[1]

  • Multi-workspace isolation and roles Multi-workspace isolation and roles: scope every record and AI connector to one workspace, with Owner, Admin, and Member roles controlling what each person and connector can do.[1]

  • Gmail and Outlook sync Gmail and Outlook sync: bring email and calendar alongside CRM records on both Cloud Pro and Enterprise plans instead of copying context between tools.[1]

  • Docker self-hosting Docker self-hosting: deploy the same AGPL-3.0 codebase with Docker Compose, Coolify, Dokploy, or Laravel Cloud on PostgreSQL and Redis, starting from about 2 GB of RAM and a five-step quickstart.[1]

Who will love it

  • AI-forward development teams AI-forward development teams: the MCP server, REST API, and schema access give in-house agents live customer data, and the Laravel and Filament stack is familiar ground for PHP shops.[1][2]

  • Data-control small businesses Data-control small businesses: self-hosting under AGPL-3.0 keeps every record on your own server with unlimited users and records, which suits teams with residency or retention requirements.[1][2]

  • Per-seat pricing leavers Per-seat pricing leavers: every plan is priced per workspace with unlimited users and records, so growing headcount does not move the bill the way per-seat SaaS does.[1]

Who should avoid it

  • Self-hosting ops burden Teams with nobody to run a server: self-hosting means owning Docker, PostgreSQL, upgrades, and backups; the alternative is paying for Cloud Pro or Enterprise hosting.[1][2]

  • English-only interface Teams needing a non-English interface today: the app ships English-only, and translations currently live in self-hosted forks rather than in the main repository.[1]

  • Metered AI credits Teams expecting unlimited AI use on the flat plan: Cloud Pro includes 2,000 AI credits a month, metered by model and tool calls, with prepaid top-ups beyond that.[1]

Questions worth asking

What is the best Relaticle alternative for non-technical users?

HubSpot, the incumbent in this catalogue relationship, is the safer pick for non-technical teams: it offers guided onboarding, human support, and built-in reporting, while Relaticle assumes someone comfortable operating a self-hosted application or paying for its managed cloud.[1][2]

Is Relaticle really no-code?

Mostly. Custom fields, permissions, and workspace setup are configured in the app without code, while deeper changes such as custom backend logic need Laravel and PHP development. Self-hosting separately needs someone comfortable with Docker and PostgreSQL.[1][2]

How much does Relaticle cost per month?

Cloud Pro is $19 per workspace per month billed yearly ($228 a year), or $24 billed monthly, with unlimited users and records, a 2,000-credit monthly AI allowance, and a 14-day trial that needs no card. Enterprise implementation starts at $20,000 a year. Self-hosting the AGPL-3.0 codebase is free apart from your own infrastructure. Checked October 12, 2026.[1]

Can you self-host Relaticle?

Yes. Deploy the AGPL-3.0 codebase with Docker Compose, Coolify, Dokploy, or Laravel Cloud against PostgreSQL and Redis, starting from about 2 GB of RAM, and create the admin account with the documented artisan command. You own upgrades, backups, and scaling from there.[1][2]
