The differentiator

Computed from the stack graph, both directions. Every cited edge links the page it was read from; a vendor-added one links the vendor’s own source — this is the reason to be here rather than on the vendor’s own site.

Price

We hold no price for this product.

This is open-source software: you can run it yourself and the licence costs nothing. If the project also sells a hosted service, we do not yet hold the page it prices it on. If that changes — or if you publish /.well-known/pricing.json — it appears here with a capture date.

Nobody has written one yet.

A review here is structured, not a star: hardware, scale band, what broke in production, and whether you would choose it again.

Frequently asked

Is cowork-os open source?
Yes — it is listed as open source, and its repository is the source for the activity figures on this page rather than anything the project says about itself.
What does cowork-os run on?
OpenAI. Every one of those is an edge we recorded from documentation that states it, not an inference from what the two products have in common.
Does cowork-os offer open source?
Yes. Read from their own page: “CoWork OS is free and open source.”.
What does a blank mean on the cowork-os page?
That nobody has told us, not that the answer is no. A hollow ring is "no answer on record", which is a different state from a recorded no — and the two look different on purpose. A blank is an absence of evidence, and this page shows how many of its questions are in that state rather than quietly leaving them out.
Where do the cowork-os figures come from?
Each one is read from a public page — usually the vendor's own documentation or pricing page — and carries a link to it with the date it was read. Nothing here is estimated, averaged across sources, or inferred from a similar product. If a figure cannot be traced to a page, it is not published.
Can cowork-os change what this page says?
They can claim the listing and supply or correct values, which are then labelled as theirs. They cannot remove the page, hide a comparison they are losing, or change a figure somebody else recorded with a source. Nothing on the page is for sale. How the site is paid for is set out under money and independence at /our-data#sec5.
Something here is wrong — how do I fix it?
Dispute the value. Every figure links to the page it was read from, so a dispute names the value and gives a source that contradicts it. That is the only lever anyone has over this page, and it is the same lever for the vendor, a competitor and a reader.

Cite this page

A model that quotes us should quote us correctly. The reading and its date sit inside the citation rather than beside it, because a quotation carrying only a URL goes wrong the week the URL changes.

What cowork-os can and cannot change here

Claiming the organisation lets its admins and editors change the tagline, description, logo, docs link and deployment model of every product that org owns — live, labelled as theirs, and logged. Answers to blank questions and dependencies go live too, marked as the owner’s and sourced; a documented answer cannot be overwritten. Everything else on this page is a stated fact with a dispute route: price, licence and OSS figures. Those columns are ungranted at the database level, so they are not a feature we withheld — they are a write that cannot happen. Name, category, website, pricing page and package names can be changed by the owner only through our review. A dispute never deletes a value; it marks it and publishes the correction.
