Flowise is a tool for building AI agents visually. It is organized as a mono repository with three main modules: a Node backend (server) to serve API logics, a React frontend (ui), and components for third-party node integrations. Flowise can be self-hosted across various deployment options or used through Flowise Cloud.
Building AI agents visually.
Flowise is a visual low-code platform for building AI agents and agentic workflows ("Build AI Agents, Visually", "Agentflow"). While the entrypoint code itself shows no autonomy signals (it's a server/UI/components monorepo), the platform's core purpose is to let users construct and run autonomous multi-step agent workflows that can call tools, chain LLM calls, and integrate third-party nodes without per-step human confirmation. The framework is a builder/runtime for autonomous agents rather than a single advisory agent, so it is best classified at the autonomy ceiling it enables.
Side effects
• Executes user-built agent flows that can call external APIs and tools
• Integrates third-party nodes (components module) that perform actions on external systems
• Serves a backend API that can trigger chained LLM and tool calls
• Reads/writes data through connected integrations and datastores
