You ask. Blink builds.

Blink creates, configures, and deploys your agents. All from your terminal.

Terminal — /agents/slackbot

blink init

Blink sets up everything your agent needs to deploy, from project structure to configuration. In a few guided steps, you'll create your agent's Slack app and manifest, ready to build and launch.

Deploy to Blink Cloud to make your agent accessible from anywhere, including Slack. During early access, deploying agents is free.

Add your agent to Slack

Your deployed agent is instantly available as a Slack chatbot, ready to work with your team in any channel you add it to.

Democratize information access

Ship agents that connect directly to your business systems, with or without MCP, so everyone can find the information they need (without digging through unfamiliar tools.)

Slack integration feature

Stay informed, stay inspired

Slack agents can do more than automate work. Build ones that keep your team connected with the latest news, trends, or fun updates.

Slack integration feature

Supplement your teams

Give agents tools that let them work alongside your team, handling the backlog tasks and noisy requests that slow progress so your people can focus on higher-impact work.

Slack integration feature

From local to live, Blink powers it all.

Open-source and coupled with the Vercel AI SDK, Blink is an agent development engine that delivers agents from your terminal to the world.

Simple HTTP Server

Every Blink agent is simply a Node HTTP server. Deploy anywhere Node runs—your laptop, VPS, or the cloud.

Bring Your Own Keys

Use your own API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, or any provider. No gateway required. Built on the familiar AI SDK for maximum flexibility.

Agent-Ready SDKs

Pre-built tools for Slack, GitHub, and search. Extend with custom tools and even manual approval workflows.

Local-First Development

Hot-reload your agent with blink dev. Chats and storage persist locally in JSON files. Test everything offline before deploying anywhere.

Deploy Anywhere (or Nowhere)

Bundle as an npm package to share, run locally forever, or optionally deploy to blink.so. Cloud is never required—Blink is local-first by design.

Open Source, MIT Licensed

Open source under MIT. Audit the code, fork it, modify it. We believe that agent development tooling shouldn't be black boxed.

Blink is an open-source development engine for building Slack agents from your terminal. It turns your natural language instructions into fully functional agents with tools, handles deployment to Slack, and runs locally-first so you can tinker before going live.
Run 'blink init' in your terminal to create a new agent. Then use 'blink dev' to describe what you want your agent to do—Blink will build the tools and functionality. When ready, run 'blink deploy' to make it available in Slack. The entire workflow happens in your terminal.
No! Blink agents run locally on your machine during development. For production, you can optionally deploy to Blink Cloud (free during Early Access). Blink is local-first by design so you can experiment without deploying to a cloud.
Blink is open source (MIT license) and local-first. You bring your own API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, or any LLM provider—no gateways or markup. Every Blink agent is just a Node.js HTTP server, so there's no vendor lock-in. You can audit the code, fork it, and deploy anywhere.
Blink is currently in Early Access with limited availability. We're prioritizing users who can provide strong feedback to help improve the platform. You can join the waitlist at blink.so/signup to be notified when access expands.
