Introducing OAK: The Open Source Agent Kit That Makes AI Integration Effortless
In a world where AI is rapidly becoming foundational, building with it shouldn’t be a bottleneck. Yet, time and again, we saw the same frustrations: broken pipelines, scattered tools, and “starter kits” that became dead-ends when you tried to scale.

We’ve officially launched OAK (Open Agent Kit) — and it’s built with one goal in mind:
Make AI integration effortless for developers and businesses.
In a world where AI is rapidly becoming foundational, building with it shouldn’t be a bottleneck. Yet, time and again, we saw the same frustrations: broken pipelines, scattered tools, and “starter kits” that became dead-ends when you tried to scale.
OAK is our answer to all of that.
Why We Built OAK
Over the last decade, we’ve built digital products and agencies across a range of industries. We watched the evolution of AI go from niche curiosity to transformative force — and with it came an explosion of frameworks, APIs, and platforms all claiming to make things easier.
But what we saw in the trenches was very different.
Businesses wanted to innovate, but integrating AI into real-world workflows felt risky and overly technical.
Developers were forced to cobble together brittle systems from half-maintained libraries and closed ecosystems.
Designers and product teams were often left out entirely because most solutions ignored the frontend experience.
We kept thinking — Why is building an AI-powered app still so complex?
Where’s the modern developer experience?
That’s when we decided to build OAK: a toolkit that actually makes it easier to create smart, scalable, production-grade AI apps.
Built in the Open, For the BuildersFrom day one, we knew OAK had to be open source.We didn’t want to create another black-box AI platform or closed ecosystem. We wanted to build something transparent, flexible, and community-driven — a toolkit that empowers developers, rather than locking them into rigid workflows or proprietary dependencies.That’s why OAK is fully open to everyone. You can explore the core, contribute improvements, fork it for your own needs, or even help shape the roadmap alongside us.By building in the open, we’re creating space for collaboration, experimentation, and long-term trust — because we believe the future of AI development should belong to the builders, not just the platforms.
What OAK Actually Is (And Isn’t)
OAK is not just another chatbot starter kit.
It’s a modular, open-source foundation for building and integrating intelligent agents — powered by LLMs — into your stack. But more than that, it’s a full developer workflow designed to evolve with your use case.
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
🧠 Agent Core
A composable system for managing agents and conversations. Create custom agent flows, memory systems, and function-calling pipelines without diving into LLM arcana. Think of it as your orchestration layer — flexible, lightweight, and easily extendable.
🧰 Developer-Centric Experiencei
Forget stitching together APIs or reverse-engineering SDKs. With OAK, you don’t need to worry about low-level integration — we handle that for you.
Whether you’re working with OpenAI, Anthropic, or open-source models, OAK gives you high-level building blocks that just work. Define custom tools, inject context, and create powerful agent behaviors through a clean, modular structure — no manual API wiring needed.
Focus on logic and experience. Let OAK handle the plumbing.
🧱 Plug-and-Play UI Components
From fully functional chat UIs to conversation threads and loading states — OAK ships with modern, accessible UI components you can drop into your app. Built with performance in mind, and designed to be customized to your brand.
🌐 Open by Default
We believe the future of AI tools should be transparent and community-driven. That’s why OAK is open-source and actively maintained on GitHub. No lock-in, no black boxes — just clean, hackable code.

Who It’s For
OAK is built for:
Developers who want to build fast and stay in control of the stack.
Product teams shipping AI-powered features and experiences without reinventing the wheel.
Agencies & startups looking to reduce time-to-market while staying flexible.
Companies tired of duct-taping their AI efforts together.
Whether you’re crafting an internal assistant, a customer-facing support bot, or a tool that automates workflows across your org — OAK gives you the solid ground to build on.
Let’s Build the Future Together
OAK isn’t just a toolkit. It’s a new way to think about how AI fits into your stack.
We believe AI should be approachable, flexible, and powerful — not something that slows you down. And we’re here to build the tools that make that vision real.
If you’re experimenting with agents, crafting AI-first products, or looking for the missing piece in your LLM workflow, we hope OAK becomes your go-to foundation.
Try it out. Break it. Fork it.
And let us know how we can make it even better.
Let’s make AI integration effortless — together.
We’re actively listening to the community, and your feedback is what will shape the roadmap. What do you want to see next? What’s missing? What’s too complicated?
