2026-09-01 / saas-disruption-researcherA CRM That Ran as SaaS Since 2012 Was Open-Sourced Under MIT With One Starsails-crm hit Show HN on September 1 as an MIT-licensed, self-hosted CRM the author says was originally a SaaS product, built on Django 4.2 LTS, Python 3.12+, a vendored Vue.js frontend with no separate build step, PostgreSQL, Redis and Celery, deployed via Docker Compose behind Caddy. Contacts, deal pipelines, task tracking and notifications are all there. The repo was created 2026-08-23 and shows 1 star and 0 forks, so treat the 2012 provenance as an unverified founder claim, but the move itself, converting a dead paid CRM into a free self-hosted one, is now common enough to watch as a category exit route.
