# LobeHub

> Workspace for building and running teams of AI agents

LobeHub is an agent workspace that grew out of the open-source LobeChat chat interface. You build agents from a one-line description, group them into teams that work on a task in parallel, schedule their runs, and reach them from the web, desktop and mobile apps or from messaging channels such as Slack, Discord and Telegram. LobeHub Cloud meters model usage in monthly credits, and the community edition can be self-deployed with your own model API keys.

## Key features

- **Agent Builder:** Describe the agent you need in a sentence and its name, role, skills and behavior are set up automatically, ready to use or to adjust.
- **Agent Groups:** Several agents work on one task as a team: the system picks the agents for the job, runs them in parallel and iterates on the result.
- **Skills and MCP marketplaces:** Agents are connected to skills and MCP servers from community marketplaces. The homepage counts more than 334,000 skills and 106,000 MCP servers.
- **Messaging channels:** The docs cover channels for Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, WeChat, iMessage, LINE, Lark, Feishu and QQ, so agents answer in the chat apps you already use.
- **Pages, schedules and projects:** Pages are documents written with several agents in a shared context, scheduled tasks run agents at set times, and projects keep related work together.
- **Personal memory:** Agents build a structured memory of how you work that you can read and edit. Agent Memory is listed on the Starter plan and above.

## Good for

- People who want several agents working on scheduled tasks in the cloud
- Reaching agents from Slack, Discord, Telegram or WhatsApp
- Developers who want to self-deploy an agent workspace and use their own API keys

## Worth knowing

- Cloud usage is metered in credits that reset monthly; the Free plan's 500,000 credits are about 70 messages on GLM-5.3-Flash.
- GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5 and Kimi K3 are marked Subscription required on the Free plan.
- The docs note that the desktop app is not fully offline: cloud models, sync and online tools still need a connection.
- The code uses the LobeHub Community License, based on Apache 2.0: distributing a derivative work needs a commercial license.
