# Sim

> Sim is an open-source workspace for building AI agents and the workflows that connect them. You can compose, test, and deploy agent systems in one place, and because it is open source, you are not tied to a proprietary platform's roadmap, pricing, or lock-in. It earned 679 upvotes on Product Hunt. The pitch is transparency and composability for people who build agents seriously. It targets developers and teams that want multi-agent orchestration but would rather run it on infrastructure they can inspect and control than hand the keys to a closed commercial service. Sim reflects a broader countercurrent to the big enterprise agent platforms racing to own the governance layer. As Google, Microsoft, and Amazon push their managed offerings, open-source alternatives give smaller teams a way to keep orchestration in their own hands. For anyone wary of betting their agent stack on a single vendor, that independence is the whole appeal.
