# OpenAdapt

Open Source Generative Process Automation (i.e. Generative RPA). AI-First Process Automation with Large ([Language (LLMs) / Action (LAMs) / Multimodal (LMMs)] / Visual Language (VLMs)) Models

## About OpenAdapt

OpenAdapt is the open source software adapter between Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) and traditional desktop and web GUIs.

OpenAdapt v1.0+ uses a modular meta-package architecture. The main openadapt package provides a unified CLI and depends on focused sub-packages via PyPI:

Zero-shot VLMs fail on GUI tasks not due to lack of capability, but due to ambiguity in UI affordances. OpenAdapt resolves this by conditioning agents on human demonstrations — "show, don't tell."

OpenAdapt is an open-source project written primarily in Python, with 1.7k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in July 2026.

```
pip install openadapt              # Minimal CLI only
```
