AI-ASSISTANTS
Velocity5.0

Open-source autonomous AI agent platform that chains GPT outputs to accomplish goals.

AutoGPT is tuning the funnel: trials now start with a hired team and tasks ready to run.

ai-agentsonboardingmonetizationself-hostingapprovals
◆Current state
AutoGPT is now a hosted platform of hireable AI experts run by AutoPilot, not a freeform agent builder. The last six releases fill in the plumbing around that: an approval model where each block declares its effect, External API v2, per-install secrets for self-hosters, and a steady flow of new models and integration blocks. v0.11.2 moves to the commercial side, with a plan-first trial, self-serve account deletion, Microsoft sign-in and per-account sandbox limits.
◆Where it's heading
Releases ship weekly and most items target onboarding, billing and limits rather than new agent capability. Self-hosters keep absorbing breaking changes (payment settings, trusted proxies, VAPID keys) as the hosted product sets defaults. The PostHog events on usage-limit refusals and plan tier show the team now measures conversion directly.
◆Prediction
Expect more paywall and trial experiments driven by the new usage-limit and plan-tier events, plus further breaking config changes for self-hosted installs ahead of External API v1's 2027-01-31 cutoff.

    AutoGPT trials start with a hired team and ranked tasks

    v0.11.2 reworks the trial: users see starter tasks and experts on the paywall, the hire step is gone, and the team is hired when the trial starts. Self-serve account deletion, Microsoft sign-in, per-account sandbox caps and Claude Fable 5.2 support round out a release aimed at conversion and limits.

    🚀 AutoGPT Platform v0.11.1

    Skills now run as slash commands with arguments, background subtasks return results into the chat, and input nodes can sit alongside triggers. Self-hosters must generate their own Web Push key pair, which continues the per-install secrets push.

    🚀 AutoGPT Platform v0.11.0

    v0.11.0 carries five breaking changes for self-hosters: payment enforcement becomes the ENABLE_PLATFORM_PAYMENT setting, oversized request bodies get a 413, proxies must be listed in TRUSTED_PROXIES, and feature flags move from LaunchDarkly to PostHog. On the user side it adds Parallel Decisions blocks and a single Microsoft connection for mail, calendar, files and Teams.

    🚀 AutoGPT Platform v0.10.0

    v0.10.0 introduces External API v2 and gives v1 until 2027-01-31, while self-hosted Docker Compose now generates per-install service passwords and binds data ports to localhost. Most of the rest is design-token migration work.

    🚀 Release `autogpt-platform-beta-v0.9.0`

    v0.9.0 makes every block declare its effect so Auto can run cheap outward actions and ask first on costly ones, and adds a Docker Hub image with a Windows installer. Admin tools against multi-account abuse show the hosted platform is growing.

    AutoGPT routes expert integrations through MCP first

    v0.8.4 routes expert integrations through MCP first and moves Copilot chat onto a resumable turn runtime. The rest is onboarding, wallet and reply-length tuning for the experts product.
