Your data. Your email. Your AI.

Email sends through your own SMTP account - nothing routes through a third party. AI features are optional and use your own API key. Everything lives in one SQLite file you back up by copying it. CRMax Core is MIT licensed - use it, change it, ship it, commercially or not.
