## Quickstart

### Cloud-hosted: [sim.ai](https://sim.ai)

<a href="https://sim.ai" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Open-sim.ai-3B3B3B?labelColor=1A1A1A" alt="Open sim.ai"></a>

### Self-hosted

```bash
npx simstudio
```

Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)

Docker must be installed and running. Use `-p, --port <port>` to run Sim on a different port, or `--no-pull` to skip pulling the latest Docker images.

</p>

## Capabilities

- Connect 1,000+ integrations and every major LLM
- Add Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce, databases, and more
- Build agents visually, conversationally, or with code
- Ingest files, knowledge bases, and structured table data
- Monitor runs, logs, schedules, and workflow activity

## One workspace, every surface

<p align="center">Chat and workflows are just the start — tables, files, knowledge, and scheduled tasks all live in the same workspace.</p>
