Self-hosted funnel

Self-host a Discord AI runtime without giving up the product experience.

Sage is an open-source Discord AI runtime for teams that want their own provider, data policies, and operations surface while keeping a chat-first Discord UX for operators.

Runtime story OpenAI-compatible

Self-hosted deployments can point Sage at compatible providers through the documented configuration surface.

Product surface Discord-native

Operators still work in mentions, replies, and guided follow-ups instead of a command-first UX.

Evaluation depth Docs before repo spelunking

The website explains setup, security, and deployment choices before you need the full engineering docs.

What self-hosting means in Sage

Self-hosting Sage is not only about replacing a model endpoint. It means owning the full runtime shape that sits behind the Discord experience your operators see every day.

The product promise stays the same

  • Discord-first entry points
  • context-aware replies
  • governed actions
  • a clearer operator story

The implementation choices become yours

  • provider configuration
  • deployment and support services
  • observability and privacy controls
  • how much of the optional stack you enable
Runtime

One runtime, not a pile of bot add-ons

Sage combines memory, tools, approvals, and long-running work inside a single Discord-native runtime story.

Operations

Provider flexibility and operator clarity

Self-hosting is part of the product narrative, with clearer docs for setup, deployment, and support.

Technical depth

Architecture available when you need it

LangGraph, social graph, and deeper runtime internals stay available for technical evaluators without hijacking the main funnel.

Next steps

Keep the next click intentional.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Sage be run on my own infrastructure?

Yes. Sage is open source and documents self-hosting with an OpenAI-compatible runtime, Docker-managed support services, and operator-facing setup flow.

Is Sage tied to one model vendor?

No. The self-hosted path is described as provider-flexible, with configuration options for compatible runtimes and models.
