What a one-person company does, and does not do

Descarty is run by its founder, who builds and sells the product alone.

  1. What we do

    We publish the price. You can try the product free for 14 days. You pay monthly and can cancel in any month. The developer replies to you by email within two business days.

  2. What we don't do

    No visits, no on-site work, no building it for you. The one exception is the one-month onboarding, online, where we build your first job together.

  3. If Descarty went away

    The engine, Dagu, is open source under GPL-3.0. The instructions you wrote in words stay on your computer as YAML files. When the Kitewell license expires, you can no longer run workflows in Kitewell.

Dagu, open source

Kitewell runs on Dagu, the open-source workflow engine Descarty develops. Anyone can read the source code to see how the engine works.

License
GPL-3.0
Public since
2022
  1. You can check what is inside

    The engine's source code is public on GitHub. Before adopting it, anyone can check how it works and where it keeps data.

  2. Your instructions stay with you

    The instructions you write in words stay on your computer as YAML files, in a form people can read.

Dagu is a workflow engine that runs workflows defined in YAML. It is a single executable and needs no database. It combines scripts, commands, containers, SSH operations on servers, and more, and runs them on schedule.

Automation that the people who know the work can keep.

Many companies use RPA. Yet a robot can stop when a screen changes slightly, and often only the person who built it can fix it. Automation has created a new kind of dependency on individuals.

I have developed Dagu, an open-source workflow engine, since 2022. What that work taught me is that keeping automation running is harder than building it.

Kitewell is our answer. Steps are written in everyday language, AI operates the screens of systems with no API as a person would, and when a screen changes, AI relearns the step. When it cannot fix a step, it stops and tells you, the reason is recorded, and you fix it by talking to the AI assistant. The engine, Dagu, is open source.

We build software so the people who know the work best can keep their own automation. That is what Descarty is for.
