At our previous startups, Felix, Charles, and I each had to build our own in-house CRM from scratch—because nothing out there was customizable enough for our needs. The only real alternative was Salesforce which came with huge prices, vendor lock-in and a proprietary language (Hello APEX).
We built Twenty so you don’t have to go through that pain. That means you can avoid the headaches of building a CRM from scratch or the frustration of dealing with expensive, rigid, and closed-off enterprise solutions.
Twenty is open-source, giving you full transparency and total control—no black boxes, no hidden costs. You own your stack, your data, and your roadmap.
If you’re a builder, tinkerer, or just tired of being boxed in by your CRM, give Twenty a try.

Who hunted Twenty?
Twenty was hunted by Thomas des Francs. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
