Chatwoot is the modern, open-source, self-hosted customer support platform, built for scale and flexibility. It gives businesses full control over their customer data while providing tools to manage conversations across channels: live chat on a website, email, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, Telegram, Line, and SMS. It ships with Captain, Chatwoot's AI agent for support, which answers common queries automatically so that agents can concentrate on complex conversations.

Fonoster is an open-source cloud communications platform, described in its README as a "Programmable Telecommunications Stack" that lets businesses connect telephony services with the Internet entirely through a cloud-based utility. It lives in the CPaaS ecosystem, the same category as Twilio, and ships as a TypeScript codebase under the MIT licence. The platform is API-first: a Voice Application is a server that controls a call's flow, written against the Node.js SDK (`@fonoster/sdk`) and the voice server module (`@fonoster/voice`). A plugins-based command-line tool drives the same API, and deployments target Kubernetes alongside the other topics attached to the project.
