Let’s talk

What is a startup operating system?

One workspace for the context behind your company: documents, conversations, research, and code. Launchstack connects that knowledge so you can ask questions with cited answers, prepare founder reviews, and create source-grounded marketing content.

What can I bring into Launchstack?

Upload documents, images, audio and video recordings, Markdown, and ZIP archives, or import a GitHub repository. Configured instances also offer Google Drive, Slack, GitHub, and optional read-only Gmail connections. Notion exports can be uploaded as files; an export import does not continuously sync with the original app.

Is Launchstack really free?

The software is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license. You can self-host it with your own API keys. Your hosting, storage, and model providers may charge for their services, so your running costs depend on your setup and usage.

Can I keep control of my data?

Yes. When you self-host, your documents and workspace data live on infrastructure you control. AI requests go to the providers you configure. You choose those providers and their data policies, and can inspect the source code for how data is handled.

How do I get started?

Create an account to open the hosted app, or follow the deployment guide to run your own instance with Docker Compose. Add a few documents and ask a question to start exploring your company's knowledge.

For the ideas that won’t leave you alone.

Give your next big thing
a place to begin.

Free software. Open source. All yours.
