MindsHub is the new direction of the project long known as MindsDB. The repository that once described a federated query engine for AI now hosts the platform superproject for MindsHub, an agent workspace for completing knowledge work and developing software with a choice of models. It brings together a desktop and web app, the agent backend and a data engine.

It is aimed at knowledge workers and teams who want agents to automate multi-step reading and writing work, such as reports, monitoring and recurring operations, and to build internal tools like apps, dashboards, decks, documents and analyses that can be published to a live URL. A secure vault connects systems such as BigQuery, Postgres, Gmail, Drive, HubSpot, Notion and Linear with credentials scoped per connection; a model router switches between frontier models (Claude, GPT, Gemini) and open models (DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi); open-source agent harnesses can be swapped from a dropdown; and memory, skills and scheduling are built in.

Getting started: use the web app with no installation, download the desktop app for macOS or Windows, or build from source on Linux with `make setup` and `make dev`. A free tier is available, with paid plans for additional models and features.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool. Data as of 2026-10-24.

Features

01Connect to hundreds of enterprise data sources.
02Unify structured and unstructured data using knowledge bases and views.
03Automate data synchronization and transformation with scheduled jobs.
04Enable built-in AI agents to respond to queries over your data.
05Open-source, self-hostable, and highly customizable server architecture.
02

Why choose it

+Connects agents to many business data sources while keeping credentials scoped per connection.
+Model router across frontier and open models without separate keys for each provider.
+Turns agent output into shareable artifacts such as dashboards, apps and documents.
+Open-source (MIT) superproject that can be built and run from source.
03

Trade-offs

!The project has changed direction completely; documentation, tutorials and integrations written for MindsDB's SQL query engine do not apply.
!The hosted workspace is the main path, and frontier models and some features sit in paid plans.
!Repository naming is in transition (references to mindsdb/minds and mindsdb/mindshub), which can confuse when cloning.

Who it fits

Pick it if
  • You want to connect databases (SQL/NoSQL) directly to LLMs, embedding models, and multi-agent systems using familiar SQL statements.
  • You need an agent workspace that unifies model routing across frontier/open models with connected enterprise data sources.
Look elsewhere if
  • You need simple, lightweight in-memory agent scripts; Pydantic AI or CrewAI have far less infrastructure overhead.
  • You prefer pure code ORM queries and do not want an intermediate SQL virtualization proxy layer.
