Relaticle
Product Hunt Manuk Minasyan
Relaticle launched: an open-source CRM where AI writes need approval before anything changes. It also works with MCP clients and can be self-hosted under AGPL, including local Ollama inference.

Relaticle is trying to do CRM the hard way: make the AI useful without letting it run wild. The new open-source system is built agent-first, so any MCP client can tap into 37 first-party tools over OAuth. Workspace custom fields also show up automatically in each agent’s schema.
That’s the broad promise. The sharper bit is the in-app assistant. Every write becomes a proposal first, with the exact change shown and approved record by record. No silent edits, no “oops, the model updated the wrong contact.” It’s a small detail with big consequences, because CRM data is exactly the kind of thing people don’t want an overeager assistant mangling.
Relaticle also leans hard into self-hosting. Everything can be run under AGPL, including local inference with Ollama. If a team wants the whole stack on its own turf, that path is there.
The pricing pitch follows the same logic. Self-hosted is free forever, while the Cloud version uses flat per-workspace pricing instead of charging by seat. That’s a direct jab at the usual CRM billing model, where every extra teammate seems to come with its own little tax.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
This is the right way to do AI in software that actually matters: make the model ask permission, then make it local if people want control. The industry has spent long enough pretending “agentic” means “please break my database faster.” Open systems with boring guardrails beat flashy autonomy every time.
