Eigent is a desktop application that puts a multi-agent AI workforce on your machine. You describe a task, and a pool of specialized agents divides it up, works in parallel, and delivers results. It's built for people who want AI to actually finish work, not just assist with it.
The core idea is "cowork": agents operate alongside you in your desktop environment with access to your local files, browser, and terminal. You can run a single focused agent for direct tasks or spin up a full workforce where agents collaborate across steps. A Browser Agent handles web research, a Document Agent reads and writes files, a Terminal Agent runs shell commands, and a Multi-modal Agent processes images and other media.
Key capabilities include:
The open source version is fully self-hostable with your own API keys or local models. It's built on CAMEL-AI, a multi-agent framework, and runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
For teams doing research-heavy work, competitive analysis, report generation, or any task that involves pulling from multiple sources and producing structured output, Eigent is closer to OpenHands than a simple chat interface. It's designed to complete multi-step work end-to-end rather than hand control back to you at every turn. Last 30 days
