How it Works — Real Use Cases

No account. No separate install. No Big Tech dependency. Every General Bots app ships pre-installed in the suite and runs on infrastructure you own — this is how it works and what teams actually use it for.

Deploy the whole suite on your VPS

One container, every app pre-installed and pre-integrated. Your data stays on your hardware — no accounts, no SaaS gatekeeper.

Open it from the desktop launcher

The app is one click away inside the General Bots desktop. No separate signup, no setup wizard, no credit card.

Drive it with plain language or the API

Ask the AI assistant to do the work — or call the REST API directly from your own tools. The endpoints below are real, from the source code.

Capabilities

Everything a Modern Designer Needs

Powerful capabilities with AI orchestration — all self-hosted on your infrastructure.

Drag-and-drop canvas

Palette of trigger, action, branch, parallel, merge, LLM and knowledge base nodes on a snap-to-grid canvas with zoom, pan, fit-to-screen and auto-arrange.

AI flow components

Classify, extract, generate and AI chat components plus knowledge base search bring natural language automation to any flow.

Preview and deploy

Test conversations live in preview mode with active-step highlighting and variable inspection, then deploy to production or staging with trigger phrases.

BASIC code export

Every flow compiles to BASIC source you can view and customize, with code components for custom logic and full canvas keyboard shortcuts.

Ready-made templates

Start faster with pre-built FAQ, support, sales, appointment, feedback and onboarding templates right from the new flow dialog.

Variables and branching

System and flow variables power if/else branches, loops, waits, error handling paths and retry logic across your flows.
