🔥 Open WES is a customizable, open-source Warehouse Execution System designed to streamline warehouse operations. By integrating AI-driven optimization and a microservices architecture, Open WES delivers smarter, scalable, and future-ready solutions for modern supply chains. 🌟 Star to support our work!

What it solves

Open WES provides a customizable, open-source alternative to traditional Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). While traditional systems focus on inventory tracking and batch processing, Open WES focuses on the real-time orchestration of warehouse workflows, specifically for high-automation environments using robots, AGVs, and IoT devices.

How it works

The system uses a modular, cloud-native architecture that integrates with automation technologies via RESTful and WebSocket APIs. It allows users to configure customizable rules for task allocation, sorting, and routing, and leverages AI to optimize operations, predict demand, and automate decision-making.

Who it’s for

It is designed for e-commerce and 3PL (third-party logistics) providers, as well as any warehouse evolving toward "Industry 4.0" smart automation that requires real-time coordination of robotic hardware.

Highlights

  • Automation-Centric: Built specifically for seamless integration with AGVs, robots, and ROS.
  • Real-Time Processing: Dynamically optimizes tasks and resource allocation instead of relying on batch updates.
  • Open Source: MIT licensed, removing vendor lock-in and high licensing fees associated with proprietary WMS.
  • AI-Powered: Includes capabilities for demand prediction and operational optimization.

    desplega-ai/agent-swarm

    agent‑swarm is an open‑source platform that turns a lead AI agent into a task‑routing hub, delegating work to containerised worker agents (Claude Code, Codex, etc.). It integrates with Slack, GitHub, email, and many other tools, persisting context via vector memory, and can automatically generate PRs, replies, or scheduled scripts. The system is model‑agnostic, runs via Docker (or Helm on Kubernetes), and is licensed under MIT.
