RaxBoard
The modern, self-hosted community forum with built-in AI.
RaxBoard is a next-generation, self-hosted community platform designed for ultimate extensibility. It features a lifetime license, ~70 native modules, built-in AI tools, and a rich marketplace with free add-ons. Built on a modern PHP architecture, it runs flawlessly on shared hosting.
Hey Product Hunt! I'm thrilled to launch RaxBoard today.
After spending years working with legacy forum platforms, I realized the community space needed a serious upgrade. Communities shouldn't be held back by outdated tech, fragmented ecosystems, or expensive monthly subscriptions.
That’s exactly why I built RaxBoard—a modern, self-hosted community forum designed from the ground up for flexibility, performance, and true extensibility.
Why RaxBoard stands out:
- No Subscriptions: Get a lifetime license starting at just $85.
- Feature-Packed: ~70 native modules ready out-of-the box.
- Smart Communities: Built-in AI tools to help moderate and engage your users.
- Modern Architecture: A monolith modular design built on PHP 8.1+, running smoothly even on standard shared hosting.
- Highly Customizable: Seamless multi-language support, pluggable search, and a growing marketplace full of free add-ons.
- Whether you're a developer looking for a robust foundation or a creator wanting to build a tightly-knit community, RaxBoard is built to scale with you.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and answer any questions you might have about our architecture, roadmap, or features! Let's build better communities together.
Ran it on a basic shared host and was honestly surprised how snappy it felt. The lifetime license plus the marketplace angle is a nice change from yet another monthly subscription.
