What it supplies: The README presents Automatisch as a self-hosted business automation tool for connecting services without programming.

Useful for: - Connect services such as Twitter and Slack into automated workflows.
- Keep workflow data on your own servers.
- Avoid vendor lock-in by running it yourself.

First action: - Clone the repository and run docker compose up.
- Sign in with the sample account in the README, then change the email and password in settings.
- Use the documentation's installation guide for other install types.

Prerequisites and limits: The README gives no version; its quick install uses Docker Compose.

- A default sample login exists, so change it before exposing the service.
- Mixed licences complicate redistribution.
- Available integrations are described in the documentation, which was not read.

Source-documented: the Community Edition is AGPL-3.0 and the Enterprise Edition is commercial. Files with .ee. in their name are under the Enterprise licence and other files under AGPL-3.0, in one repository, so check which files you use.

Written from the README text only. Statements are as the README gives them; nothing was installed or run.
Based on README text only; the documentation and code were not read. Nothing was installed or run.
