OccupySaaS: Laid-Off Engineers Launch Open-Source SaaS Replacements

OccupySaaS movement launches with identity and CRM projects

1 Nov 1 7:17 PM · 10d ago · 1 post · 1 source · development 1 of 8

OccupySaaS publishes its manifesto describing a movement of laid-off engineers building clean-room open-source replacements for expensive SaaS platforms. Initial projects target identity (ZeroAuthy, compatible with Auth0) and CRM (Salesforce replacement), with public documentation and open standards as the foundation.

“OccupySaaS borrows that spirit and swaps tents for terminals. No marches, no property damage — just working software, published under an open licence, that anyone can run.”
