Dagu

Dagu is an open, self-hosted automation and workflow platform — you install it on your own hardware and keep full control of your data. Self-hosting it means no per-user subscription and no third-party cloud holding your information.

The project is developed in the open via GitHub, where it has earned 3.9K stars from the community. Repository activity was last recorded on Sep 11, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.

Before you switch

Automation tools quietly become critical infrastructure. Before moving real workflows over, export or document your existing automations, recreate one end-to-end, and watch a few runs. Check how the tool stores credentials and whether it supports backups — you will thank yourself later.

Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Dagu is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
