MausBot

OpenMausBot, a local-first multi-agent platform from developer milind-soni, has reached v0.1.95 with 3,992 GitHub stars and its last commit 2 hours ago, two months after the repository launched under the Apache-2.0 license. MausBot runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux and assigns each bot its own model (Claude, Codex, or others), its own desktop for computer use, scheduled tasks, and app connections via Composio, keeping transcripts, keys, and events in a local folder rather than proxying credentials through a third party. Cloud plans add always-on workspaces with scheduled tasks and voice, while users still bring their own Claude or ChatGPT account.

- Stars 3,992 - Last commit 2 hours ago - Repository age 2 months - Version v0.1.95 - License Apache-2.0 https://openalternative.co/licenses/apache-2 - Self-hosted Yes https://openalternative.co/collections/self-hosted - Repository milind-soni/openmausbot https://github.com/milind-soni/OpenMausBot MausBot is a local-first Grok Bot alternative https://openalternative.co/alternatives/grok-bot that lets you run a team of AI agents from a familiar chat interface. Each bot gets its own model, its own computer, and access to your connected apps. They work in parallel, come back when something needs your attention, and never proxy your credentials through a third party. It runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux under Apache 2.0. Your transcripts, keys, and events stay in a local folder on your own disk. Local-first isn't a setting; it's the default. Key capabilities: - Model per bot. Assign Claude, Codex, or other models to individual bots and switch mid-conversation. - Computer use. Each bot gets a desktop it can see and click, either a cloud desktop from a provider you connect or your local machine directly. - Scheduled tasks. Inbox sweeps, weekly reports, competitor watches, PR reviews, and support triage all run on a calendar you define. - Connected apps. Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Linear, and hundreds more via Composio. Authenticate once and every bot on the team can use them. - Voice. Hit call and the bot hears you, narrates its work, and asks for approvals out loud. - Playbooks. A whole team, its routines, and its app connections ship as a single Markdown file. Connections stay off until you approve them. - Manage bots like contacts. Pin, duplicate, mark unread, hide, or delete. The interface is a messaging app, not a dashboard. For teams that want bots running around the clock without leaving a laptop on, Cloud plans add always-on workspaces with scheduled tasks and voice included. You still bring your own Claude or ChatGPT account; MausBot never sits between you and the model provider. Compared to other AI chat interfaces https://openalternative.co/librechat , MausBot is built specifically for multi-agent workflows where each agent has persistent tasks, tool access, and its own compute rather than just a shared conversation window. Every Sunday we deconstruct one proprietary app and pick the best open source alternatives worth switching to. - Stars - Last commit - License AI An AI assistant that acts, not just answers - Stars 391,240 - Last commit 2 hours ago - License MIT A personal AI assistant that connects to your existing chat apps and handles real tasks like email, calendar, and flight check-ins on your behalf.
