OpenOwl

Automate desktop applications through a locally running engine

Meet OpenOwl

OpenOwl is a desktop automation engine for workflows that involve real applications, including software without a suitable API. It combines screenshots, accessibility information, and text recognition to locate interface elements, then uses mouse and keyboard actions to complete tasks. Recorded workflows can be replayed with step-by-step verification rather than requiring a fresh AI decision for every action.

The engine runs locally on macOS or Windows and connects to MCP-compatible assistants such as Claude and Codex. OpenOwl offers it through managed automation services or a tailored deployment for a customer's technical team. Businesses can use the engine to connect repetitive work across desktop tools while arranging setup and maintenance around their own environment.
