# 20 free Filament 5 plugins for a SaaS admin panel (2026)

> The TomatoPHP plugins worth installing on a Filament 5 SaaS panel, grouped by job: users, settings, languages, media, billing, notifications and developer tools, with real install numbers.

A SaaS admin panel always needs the same boring parts before it needs your product: users, settings, languages, files, billing, notifications. Filament makes the panel fast. Plugins make those parts fast.

This is the list I would install on a new Filament 5 SaaS panel today. All of them are free and MIT-licensed, all are TomatoPHP plugins (so they share conventions, Arabic/RTL support and a release process), and install numbers are from Packagist (October 2026).

> **TomatoPHP vs picking random plugins:** single-purpose plugins from different authors are great, but each has its own conventions, translation approach and upgrade timing. With one family you get one style, Arabic and RTL in every plugin, and coordinated releases: when Filament 5 landed, 51 TomatoPHP plugins shipped a 5.x release within days of each other.

## How to install any of them

Every plugin follows the same pattern:

```bash
composer require tomatophp/<plugin-name>
php artisan <plugin-name>:install   # when the plugin has an installer
```

Then register `->plugin(...::make())` in your panel provider. Each plugin page has the exact class name and options. Use the 5.x line for Filament 5 (Laravel 12–13, PHP 8.2+).

**Let your AI assistant pick versions:** the TomatoPHP MCP server returns the compatible release and the exact install snippet.

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http tomatophp https://mcp.tomatophp.com/mcp
```

## See them running

The [live demo](https://demo.tomatophp.com) runs 30+ of these plugins on Laravel 13 and Filament 5, and resets every hour.

In total, TomatoPHP packages have more than 1.78 million installs on Packagist. If one of them saves you a day, a GitHub star helps others find it.
