# Airbyte

Airbyte is an open-source platform that replicates data from over 700 sources into data warehouses and lakes without writing code. It runs in your own VPC, on-premises, or on Airbyte Cloud, and the company positions the warehouse as a context layer for AI agents. The open-source engine and connectors are free to self-host, and paid plans add hosting, upgrades and support.
