What is it?

OpenCompany is an open-source system for running AI employees locally. You describe a job in plain language, connect the apps it needs, and the employee works through browsers, connected services, files, terminal and code tools. Each employee has a workspace, a routine, skills and optional memory, and a lead agent coordinates specialist agents, reviews their output and reports back.

New employees ask before sending messages or taking other actions by default, and browser use is limited to reading while Ask first is on. Jobs can arrive through the Home chat, email (Gmail, Outlook or IMAP), WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, a schedule, or webhooks in developer mode. You can watch progress, take over the browser to sign in, and stop or resume work at any time.

The desktop app stores employee data and encrypted credentials on your computer and supports cloud model providers as well as local models through Ollama or LM Studio. It can also be installed from the command line or run with Docker, and the source is built with Bun and Python.

Things to know

  • The desktop installers are not code-signed yet, so your operating system may block them.
  • You need an AI provider account or a local model, and a local model uses your computer's hardware.
  • Employees only run while the app is open and your computer is awake.
  • The optional Android workspace currently runs only on Windows x64.
