About OpenSaaS

Every year, businesses pour billions into SaaS subscriptions. Tools for invoicing, project management, CRM, customer support, analytics — the list never ends, and neither do the bills.

Meanwhile, talented developers around the world are building incredible open-source alternatives to these exact tools. Software that's often better, always more transparent, and completely free.

The problem? Discovery. These projects are scattered across GitHub, buried in Show HN posts, or shared in niche Discord servers. The people who need them most — small business owners, startups, nonprofits — never find them.

“The best software in the world should be free. Not freemium. Not open-core. Free.”

FreeStack is the bridge. We're building the definitive hub where open-source business tools get the visibility they deserve, and where businesses can find, compare, and deploy them in minutes.

What we believe

• Software freedom is business freedom. When you own your tools, you control your destiny. No price hikes, no feature removals, no vendor lock-in.
• Open source wins on merit. The best open-source tools don't need marketing budgets. They need visibility. That's what we provide.
• Community over competition. We're not here to compete with the tools we list. We're here to amplify them.

The vision

Imagine a world where every startup's first stack is entirely open source. Where a bakery in Iowa and a clinic in Nairobi both run on world-class software they can customize and own. Where developers build tools not for exit multiples, but because good software should exist.

That's what we're building toward.
