Huginn at a glance
Checked 15 Oct 2026Huginn is an MIT-licensed Rails app (release v2026.10.14) where agents scrape sites, watch RSS, IMAP, webhooks and MQTT, and post to Slack, Telegram, email and more, passing events along a graph. It can call OpenAI-compatible APIs. Runs on Unix (Docker recommended), not Windows; needs MySQL or PostgreSQL, 0.5 GB RAM minimum and 2 GB recommended. You wire agents together yourself rather than picking from a large app catalogue.
RepoQuarry. “Huginn.” Checked 15 Oct 2026. https://repoquarry.dev/projects/huginnHow much of Zapier does it replace?
3 of 4 jobs. Hackable agent graph with web scraping and webhooks; far fewer built-in app integrations.
For AI agent workflows, see other Zapier alternatives. You may also need to build an interface, an API server and hosting yourself.
