MaxKB
Open-source enterprise agent platform with RAG pipelines, workflows and MCP tool-use
Overview
MaxKB (Max Knowledge Brain) is an open-source platform from FIT2CLOUD's 1Panel team for building enterprise-grade AI agents. It combines a RAG pipeline (document upload and web crawling, auto chunking and vectorisation), a workflow engine with a function library and MCP tool-use, and a model-agnostic, multimodal design that works with many LLM providers. It is widely used for intelligent customer service, internal knowledge bases, research and education, and is licensed under GPLv3.

ASEAN Perspective
MaxKB in Southeast Asia
ASEAN-region availability and pricing notes coming soon. Drop the editorial team a note via /contact/ if you can supply local context (Singapore/Malaysia/Indonesia/Thailand/Vietnam).
MaxKB is one of the more mature open-source agent/RAG platforms out of China, pairing an easy knowledge-base ingestion flow with a real workflow engine and MCP tool-use, which makes it viable for production chatbots and internal assistants rather than just demos. Its model-agnostic design avoids vendor lock-in.
Because it is self-hostable and not tied to a specific cloud, ASEAN teams can run it anywhere, and the project has English documentation alongside Chinese. The GPLv3 licence and the operational burden of self-hosting RAG infrastructure are the main considerations for adopters.
