Koshra vs Rerun
Rerun, from Reunit SA in Luxembourg, is a hosted service for AI coworkers, each with its own cloud computer, and since 29 October 2026 also an open source edition under AGPL-3.0. Koshra is a team of AI employees that runs on a server you control, built on an Apache 2.0 open source base. Both give a team of agents shared memory, schedules and approvals.
Compared on 2 November 2026 from the public pages of Rerun, linked below, with the model cards behind Koshra's free open-weight models. Features change fast; check the sources for the latest. We only compared ideas and public facts.
| Area | Koshra | Rerun |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | On your own server, in the country you choose; we set it up and support it with you | Hosted, with one VM per workspace on Hetzner in Germany. The open source edition can be self-hosted, which Rerun describes as documented, not supported |
| Licence | Built on an Apache 2.0 open source base: commercial use, changes and resale are allowed without publishing your changes. Commercial terms for Koshra: talk to us | Open source edition under AGPL-3.0, so a changed version you host for others must have its source published; its trademark policy asks anyone hosting it for others to rebrand |
| Data residency | Wherever your server is, for example India or the EU. Model calls go to the provider you pick for each bot | EU: workspace VMs in Germany, with US model providers among its listed sub-processors; GDPR data processing agreement |
| Team setup | Dispatcher with a plan card and countdown; one owner bot per task; create a bot from a description or from 48 role templates | A workspace assistant interviews you, plans a team and builds it; a board of coworkers |
| Approvals | Allow, Ask or Block per tool and space, approval cards, per-bot modes, CRM deletes blocked and bulk changes held | Approvals and questions with suggested answers; an autopilot answers coworkers within your rules, never for spending or deleting |
| Models | Model per bot, mid-chat switch, backup chain, cost on every reply; free open-weight models or your own key for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, OpenRouter, MiniMax or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint | House tiers plus frontier models; your ChatGPT, Claude or Grok plan, API keys or local models |
| Apps and tools | Any MCP server, plus an in-app catalog of 2,137 apps through Composio and Nango, each allowed per bot | 3,000+ apps and MCPs on its site; a cloud desktop, browser and terminal per coworker that you can watch and take over |
| Uptime and speed | A public status page checked every minute; home page Lighthouse mobile performance 95 (our test, 2 Nov 2026) | No public status page found; home page Lighthouse mobile performance 40 (same test, same day) |
| For AI agents | Markdown for every page, llms.txt, a REST API with an OpenAPI 3.1 spec and an MCP server | llms.txt and Markdown on its docs site; an MCP API on paid plans |
| Devices | Web app on any browser, with phone alerts through Web Push | Web, an iOS app for its cloud, and a phone web app |
| Price | Talk to us; set with you around the team you need | Pro 29 USD a month for 5 coworkers and 500 credits, unlimited seats; 5-day trial with a card; open source edition free |

- A public status page, and a faster home page on the same Lighthouse test
- Rule-level approvals per tool and space, with CRM deletes blocked and bulk changes held
