OpenWorker

OpenWorker is a desktop AI agent that goes beyond chat — you ask for an outcome, and it works through the steps to deliver a finished document, send a Slack message, or update a calendar entry. It connects to the tools you already use, like Slack, Gmail, Outlook, Google Calendar, Notion, GitHub, Jira, and more, and runs on your own machine with your choice of model.

You bring your own AI model — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, or run Ollama fully locally. OpenWorker breaks your request into a multi-step plan, pulls data from connected tools, and returns the result as a file, a chat reply, or a Slack message. Before it takes any external action — like sending an email or posting to a channel — it asks for your approval. The interface shows you each step, the artifacts it creates, and the final output. It's 100% open source and designed to keep your data local.

This tool is best for knowledge workers who want to offload repetitive research, writing, and coordination tasks without handing over control. Sales teams can use it to prep account briefs and draft follow-ups. Operations teams can triage alerts and write incident reports. Anyone with a messy calendar can ask it to untangle their day. OpenWorker is straightforward: you describe what you need, it does the work, and you approve the actions that matter.
