OpenBot is a self-hosted agent platform from CopilotKit where each AI agent ('coworker') gets its own computer environment—a browser, files, and granted tools—with every action gated through a governance gateway that decides and records it. It runs on your own infrastructure via Docker Compose with PostgreSQL, supports any AG-UI-compatible agent, and ships with example agents for general assistance, company knowledge with citations, and risk analysis.

Use cases

  • run AI agents on my own infrastructure with full audit trails
  • give an AI agent a browser and files with restricted tool access
  • self-host a company knowledge assistant that cites sources
  • connect any AG-UI compatible agent to a chat interface
  • govern and record every action an AI agent takes before it happens
  • chat with AI agents in separate channels like teammates
  • answer questions from Google Drive and OneDrive with permissions enforced

When to choose

  • you need agents with real tool access but require approval and audit logging for every action
  • you want a self-hosted, single-tenant agent platform where data never leaves your infrastructure
  • you already have AG-UI compatible agents and want a governed UI and channel layer for them
  • you need company-knowledge answers with source citations and fail-closed file permissions

When to avoid

  • you need a battle-tested production system—the project is explicitly alpha with rough edges
  • you want a fully managed cloud service rather than running Docker Compose yourself
  • you need a lightweight agent framework or SDK rather than a full platform with database and gateway
  • you don't want to supply and manage your own model credentials
