Agent S
Open-source computer use agent operating GUI interfaces via mouse and keyboard
Agent S is an open-source agentic framework that allows multimodal AI models to operate desktop and web software like a human user. By interpreting screen visuals and generating mouse, keyboard, and scroll actions, it completes multi-step tasks across apps without custom APIs. Its third-generation version (Agent S3) and related hosted agent Sai lead benchmarks like OSWorld.
What it's for
- Automate complex multi-step workflows across desktop and browser apps
- Benchmark and evaluate computer-use agents on OSWorld and WindowsAgentArena
- Conduct autonomous web research, trip planning, and price comparisons
- Execute repetitive cross-application data entry without dedicated APIs
Features
- GUI interaction via mouse movements, clicks, keystrokes, and scrolling
- Direct visual perception of desktop and browser screens
- Multi-OS support across macOS, Windows, and Linux
- Compatibility with multiple model providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, and open-weight models
