The Philosophy Behind Klacks

Klacks is workforce scheduling that belongs to you — not to a cloud provider. Three decisions run through the entire product.

Data sovereignty instead of cloud dependency​

Klacks runs on your own infrastructure — no data has to leave the building. Especially for sensitive industries such as home care, hospitals, or security services, this is not a nice-to-have: personal data on someone else's servers and dependency on a vendor are often simply not an option for these organizations. Klacks reverses the relationship: you decide where your data lives, not the software vendor.

Freedom of AI choice instead of vendor lock-in​

Klacksy, the built-in AI assistant, is not tied to a single AI provider. Whether OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, or a locally run model — you decide on cost, privacy, and provider, not Klacks. AI support and full data sovereignty are therefore not mutually exclusive — they belong together.

Open source instead of a black box​

Klacks is open source under the MIT license — backend, frontend, and Docker images are publicly viewable. You can inspect the code, fork it, make your own changes, or contribute to its development. This is not a marketing promise but verifiable: the entire source code sits publicly on GitHub.

Who this is built for​

Klacks is aimed at organizations with shift and deployment scheduling that take these three points seriously — in particular home care organizations, hospitals, security services, cleaning companies, and logistics operators. The common denominator: 24/7 coverage, complex rest-period and qualification requirements, and a standard of data protection that an interchangeable cloud solution can't always meet.

What this means in practice​

  • You can try Klacks for free in the Playground, without registration or a sales conversation.
  • You can run it on your own server with an on-premise package (Docker images, installer, database, HTTPS, automatic updates).
  • You can inspect the source code and make changes yourself — Klacks remains yours, even as you keep developing it.
