Flowise is a popular open-source, low-code platform for building AI agents and RAG pipelines visually — chaining models, vector stores, tools and memory on a drag-and-drop canvas, built on LangChain/LlamaIndex. Workday acquired the company in August 2025 and says it will keep funding the open-source project, which has eased concerns about long-term support. Self-hosting stays free under Apache 2.0, and a hosted cloud tier starts at $35/month for teams that don't want to run it themselves. Caveats: several critical RCE vulnerabilities were disclosed in 2025-2026, including one rated CVSS 10.0, with thousands of exposed self-hosted instances found under active attack before patches landed — keep it updated and don't expose the API publicly. Complex flows also get hard to debug, and there's no built-in RBAC or audit logging outside the paid tiers.
What people say
Workday bought Flowise in August 2025. Terms weren't disclosed, but the open-source repo kept shipping — v3.1.3 landed in June 2026, and the project sits at 54,500-plus GitHub stars and 337 contributors, so the acquisition hasn't slowed development the way these things sometimes do.
What you get is a drag-and-drop canvas for wiring together LLMs, vector stores, tools and memory into either a single-agent chat flow or a multi-agent "Agentflow." It's genuinely fast for prototyping RAG and agent setups, and the self-hosted core is Apache 2.0 — free, not MIT as some listings still claim, which matters if your legal team checks these things. Enterprise names on the site now include AWS, Priceline, Accenture and Deloitte.
The uncomfortable fact worth knowing before you self-host: Flowise had three serious remote-code-execution vulnerabilities disclosed within about a year, one of them a maximum-severity CVSS 10.0 flaw in the CustomMCP node that let attackers run arbitrary JavaScript. Researchers found over 12,000 exposed instances online before fixes in v3.0.6/3.1.1 shipped. Patch promptly if you're running this yourself and don't expose the API publicly.
Pricing for the hosted option: free for 2 flows and 100 predictions a month, Starter at $35/month for unlimited flows and 10,000 predictions, Pro at $65/month for 50,000 predictions, Enterprise by quote for on-prem or air-gapped deployment with SSO and audit logs. Good fit for technical teams comfortable owning their stack; less so for anyone wanting a fully managed, hands-off service.
