What is Jarvis for ERPNext?

Jarvis is an AI teammate inside ERPNext. A person asks a business question in ordinary language. Jarvis works with the ERPNext records that person is permitted to access, shows the evidence behind the answer, prepares the next step, and keeps consequential decisions with a person.

How is Jarvis different from a separate AI chatbot?

A separate chatbot starts outside the business workflow. Jarvis works inside ERPNext, where the records, roles, source links, prepared work, review, and reusable routines already belong.

Does Jarvis follow ERPNext roles and permissions?

Yes. The current user's Frappe and ERPNext access remains the boundary. Asking Jarvis does not grant access to records that person could not otherwise open or change.

Can Jarvis change ERPNext records without approval?

Jarvis can read and explain directly. By default, it asks before creating, updating, or submitting work. An administrator may allow some ordinary, reversible changes within a conversation. Important or hard-to-reverse actions, including deletes, cancellations, amendments, email, and bulk work, wait for a person.

Can Jarvis use an existing chat subscription?

Jarvis supports approved chat subscription connections as well as provider API keys. Available subscription providers and connection methods depend on the current workspace, plan, and whether the provider supports an external connection.

Can Jarvis use local or privately hosted AI models?

Yes. Administrators can connect supported native providers, OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and approved local services such as Ollama or vLLM when the workspace and deployment support them.

Is Jarvis open source?

The Jarvis app installed on the ERPNext site is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3. Its separate agentic loop is hosted and operated by Aerele Technologies and is not open source.

Where can Jarvis be installed?

Jarvis can be installed on a compatible self-hosted ERPNext site with Bench or added as a custom app to a compatible private or dedicated Frappe Cloud bench. Onboarding then connects the company, plan, and approved AI service.

Who develops Jarvis?

Jarvis is developed by Aerele Technologies Pvt Ltd, a team with more than 800 merged public pull requests across core Frappe ecosystem repositories.

How much does Jarvis cost?

Jarvis will offer Essential and Pro plans. Exact prices, billing periods, limits, and differences are published only when the commercial terms are final. The public pricing section is the source to check.
