Three simple steps. No coding required.
Install OpenOwl with one command and connect it to your AI assistant (Claude, Codex, or any MCP-compatible AI). Point it at what you want to automate - a browser tab, a desktop app, or your entire workflow.
Just tell it what you need in plain language. "Find 50 leads on LinkedIn and save them to a spreadsheet" or "Update all prices in Shopify by 10%." No scripts, no code - just describe the task like you would to a human assistant.
OpenOwl sees your screen, opens the right apps, clicks buttons, fills forms, and navigates pages - exactly like you would. It works through each step, handles errors, and delivers a summary when done.

Every screenshot, keystroke, and action stays on your machine. OpenOwl is open source — every line of code is on GitHub for you to audit, fork, and self-host. Apache 2.0 licensed.
github.com/mihir-kanzariya/openowlApache 2.0 licensed. Read the source, fork it, self-host it — no closed-binary "trust us" moments. Your security team can verify exactly what runs on your machine.
Screenshots, files, and keystrokes are processed entirely on your machine. We have zero access to your screen content — by design, not by promise.
Run the open-source server yourself with zero account, zero limits, zero telemetry. Or use our hosted cloud for a managed experience — same code, no setup.
Start free, upgrade when you need more. No credit card required to get started.
