Needs Python 3.10+, enrichment features each require their own third-party API key.

No license information is given in the README, so usage rights are unclear.

In plain English

Brikks is a self built, local first sales prospecting tool that works like a spreadsheet but adds company and contact sourcing, contact enrichment such as finding emails and phone numbers, and AI powered columns, all running on your own computer instead of a cloud service. Your data stays on your disk at all times, and the only outside network calls are the enrichment lookups you choose to enable, sent only to the services you have configured with your own API keys. The tool runs an HTML front end that talks to a small local Python server. Getting started means cloning the repository and running a start script, which detects your Python installation, creates a configuration file if needed, and launches the app in your browser. Various third party API keys unlock specific features but are all optional, including keys for finding contact details, scraping Google Maps, or using OpenAI's GPT models, while Anthropic's Claude can be used either through a Claude Code subscription or as a fallback API key. Inside the app, you organize work into separate workspaces, each containing spreadsheet like tables. A table can pull in data from multiple sourcing runs, such as searching companies by industry and headcount, searching people by criteria like a recent job change, or querying Google Maps by location and radius, and duplicate entries are automatically merged rather than overwritten. Columns can hold plain text, numbers, AI generated answers, or automatically found emails and phone numbers, and can be run on a single cell, a full row, or an entire table. Brikks can also be controlled through natural language conversation with Claude Code using included skills, and it tracks costs carefully so you know in advance what each search or lookup will charge against connected services like FullEnrich or Bright Data.
