REI3 is an open-source, low-code platform for building multi-user business applications without extensive coding. Users can create data stores, build forms, set up workflows, manage access control, call APIs, and schedule notifications through a graphical application builder. It can be self-hosted on-premise or run in the cloud, and existing ready-made REI3 applications (e.g. for time tracking, request handling, password sharing) are available to deploy directly. The platform is free to use, with optional enterprise support and services.
