Purpose
This tool is an open-source enterprise search platform and MCP server that indexes data from 87 different SaaS, IoT, and industrial sources. It allows users and autonomous AI agents to perform hybrid search queries across connected workplace applications.

Security Assessment
Overall Risk: Medium. The tool inherently requires access to highly sensitive data to function correctly, including corporate emails, messaging platforms, and internal documentation. The automated code scan passed cleanly with no hardcoded secrets or dangerous patterns found, and the project claims to sign releases with cosign and use SLSA L3 provenance. However, one installation method relies on a piped web shell script (`curl | bash`), which is a standard but slightly risky practice. Additionally, the tool executes autonomous agents and makes external network requests to sync data.

Quality Assessment
The project is very new and early in its lifecycle (v0.1.1). It is actively maintained, with repository activity as recent as today. The codebase is properly licensed under AGPL-3.0. However, community trust and adoption are currently minimal, as evidenced by a very low star count (11).

Verdict
Use with caution: the code itself appears safe and transparent, but the extremely early stage of the project and the highly sensitive nature of the data it requires mean you should thoroughly evaluate it before deploying in a production environment.

Demo

OpenBeam indexes 87 sources — Slack, Notion, GitHub, Gmail, Salesforce, Linear, Jira, Google Drive, Confluence, plus the IoT and industrial systems Glean doesn't touch: MQTT, OPC-UA, BACnet, AWS IoT, Verkada, Samsara. One hybrid Vespa search across all of it. Citations on every answer.

v0.1.1. Built by @kuluruvineeth. PRs welcome.

Try it

openbeam auth login --api-key op_live_xxx
openbeam search query "Q2 pricing decision"

From TypeScript:

import OpenBeam from "@openbeam/sdk";
const ob = new OpenBeam({ apiKey: process.env.OPENBEAM_API_KEY! });

const { data } = await ob.agents.ask("What did the team decide about Q2 pricing?");
console.log(data.answer, data.citations);
