Overview

Buzz is a workspace where team members and AI agents share the same rooms.

It is distributed as an app and released as an open source project.

Best for: Dev teams wanting chat, planning and git work with AI agents in one shared workspace
Pricing: No prices are shown; the site states only that Buzz is an open source project.
