Stop babysitting agents. Start running a team. Most AI tools today are single agents — copilots that answer questions or write code one prompt at a time. They're brilliant at one thing. But a single employee doesn't make a company. Markus is different. It's an open-source platform that runs complete AI teams — not a wrapper around existing tools, but a full agent runtime where each agent is an autonomous worker with its own context, tools, memory, and role.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the creator of Markus, and I've spent the last year obsessing over a question that kept me up at night: Why can't AI agents work together like a real team? Every tool I tried was a single agent — brilliant at executing one prompt, but fundamentally incapable of coordination. You'd ask it to do something complex, and it would either hit a context wall, forget what it learned yesterday, or require you to stand over its shoulder and guide every step. That's not a workforce. That's a very expensive autocomplete. Markus started as a personal frustration project. I was running 10+ separate agent sessions to manage development, research, writing, and ops — each isolated, each starting from scratch, zero shared context. I kept thinking: these should all be one team with a shared brain, a task board, and someone managing the chaos. So I built it. The philosophy behind Markus is simple: * Agents should be autonomous, not puppets. Give them a goal, not a script. * Memory should actually persist — across sessions, restarts, and weeks of work. * A team of agents is better than one super-agent. Specialization + coordination beats monolithic intelligence. * You should own your infrastructure. No cloud lock-in. No per-seat SaaS tax. Open source, self-hosted, AGPL-licensed. Markus runs on infrastructure you control — on your own PC or a $10 VPS runs a full AI team. The mobile-responsive dashboard means I review deliverables on the train and approve tasks from the couch. My agents don't clock out when I do. We're open source because AI infrastructure shouldn't be a black box. The community has already contributed agent templates, and skills that I never would have thought of alone. If you've ever wanted your AI tools to work the way a real team does — delegate, review, learn, escalate, deliver — give Markus a try. One command. Zero config. Your own AI workforce. ⭐ Star us on GitHub if you believe agents should work like teammates, not tools. Let me know what you think in the comments — I read every single one.

Comment highlights

The open-source angle got me curious and the runtime setup felt way more capable than the usual single-agent wrappers I keep testing. Watching each agent hold its own context while coordinating with others was the standout moment for me.

Built a small three-agent flow for triaging support tickets and was surprised how cleanly each one kept its own context without stepping on the others. Setup took longer than I expected, but once the roles clicked it actually felt like supervising a team rather than prompting a chatbot.
