Business as AgentA deployable business of agents.
openboa is an open-source runtime where the business is the durable unit and agents are the evolvable workforce. Build continuity, shared memory, and governance from day one.
Anyone can own a business. Anyone can run one.
Business continuity over single-agent fragility
Human direction with autonomous execution loops
Agent formation based on current business need
Why openboa
Designed for operational continuity
The business keeps moving without constant prompting. Routine work can be delegated so operators focus on priorities, not manual coordination loops.
A business of agents can specialize and coordinate in parallel. Work scales through structured interaction instead of overloading one person or one agent.
Policy, approvals, isolation, and auditability keep autonomy accountable. Trust is engineered through enforceable boundaries and visible execution history.

Current stage
Early stage. Design-first.
openboa is currently early stage and design-first. The focus is to define core primitives, governance boundaries, and observable execution contracts before scaling runtime complexity.
- Not a fully autonomous, no-operator system.
- Not a generic chatbot framework.
- Not production-scale orchestration yet.
