The product
One workspace with dozens of optional plugins
Burton is an open source business automation product. Keep the wiki and CRM. Disable mail or chat. Customize and add automations as needed.
Dashboard
Track Activity
KPI cards and charts for what moved — not a slot machine of badges.
Agents
MCP out of the box
Talk to the workspace from the tools you already trust. Your markdown managed wiki stay the source of truth.
Host
On Prem or In the Cloud
Self-host on SQLite or Postgres. MIT licensed for businesses that need to own the stack.
Team
Roles that fit the work
Admin, steward, developer, and member — with English and Spanish support.
How it runs
Write it down. Let the current work.
Burton favors files you can diff: wiki pages, conversation summaries, and automation YAML. The product automates the sending so people can spend attention on the reading.
