Cowork in Action ยท Why Choose AionUi? ยท Quick Start ยท Community
AionUi is more than a chat client. It's a Cowork platform where AI agents work alongside you on your computer โ reading files, writing code, browsing the web, and automating tasks. You see everything the agent does, and you're always in control.
| Traditional AI Chat Clients | AionUi (Cowork) | | |---|---|---| | AI can operate on your files | Limited or No | Yes โ built-in agent with full file access | | AI can execute multi-step tasks | Limited | Yes โ autonomous with your approval | | Remote access from phone | Rarely | WebUI + Telegram / Lark / DingTalk / WeChat | | Scheduled automation | No | Cron โ 24/7 unattended | | Multiple AI Agents at once | No | Claude Code, Codex, Qwen Code, Hermes Agent, Snow CLI, Cursor Agent and 13+ more โ auto-detected, unified interface | | Price | Free / Paid | Free & Open Source |
AionUi ships with a complete AI agent engine. Unlike tools that require you to install CLI agents separately, AionUi works the moment you install it.
No CLI tools to installโ the agent engine is built in** No complex setup**โ sign in with Google or paste any API key** Full agent capabilities**โ file read/write, web search, image generation, MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools** Ready-to-use assistants**โ 21 built-in professional assistants (Cowork, PPT Creator, Word Creator, Word Form Creator, Excel Creator, Morph PPT, Morph PPT 3D, Pitch Deck Creator, Dashboard Creator, Academic Paper Writer, Financial Model Creator, and more) ready to use immediately
These tracks match what the app actually ships: Morph PPT presets and the ** pptx / docx / xlsx skills** (see
assistant/
presets and skills/
in the repo). Want document/table output? AionUiโs built-in helps PPT (Morph), Word (
OfficeCLI.docx
), and Excel (.xlsx/.xlsm/.csv
) go from request to deliverable faster and more reliably. The three assistant types map to file workflows, and the final outputs are directly editable and reusable.
Output:editable Morph PPT (.pptx

If you already use Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, or OpenClaw, AionUi auto-detects them and lets you Cowork with all of them โ alongside the built-in agent.

Run multiple AI agents as an organized team: a Leader agent receives your instructions, breaks them into subtasks, and delegates to Teammate agents via a built-in Team MCP Server. Teammates execute in parallel, share results through an async mailbox, and write to a shared task board.
Parallel multi-agent executionโ Leader breaks tasks into subtasks and delegates to Teammate agents running in parallel; each Teammate uses its own model via ACP (Agent Communication Protocol, AionUi's multi-agent coordination layer), Gemini, or AionrsLeader orchestrationโ Leader assigns, tracks, and aggregates results; supported backends include Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, Gemini, Snow CLI, and Aion CLITeam-isolated workspaceโ all agents share the same folder; each has its own permission dialog with sidebar badge for pending approvals
