NEW OpenMaus Bot is ABSURD! 🤯
221 segments
New OpenMouseBot is absurd. OpenMouseBot
just killed the Grok Bot waitlist. Grok
Bot went into early beta on August 11th.
It's a new app from XAI where you get a
team of AI agents living inside a chat
app. You message them like contacts.
They go do real work and come back with
the finished job. Sounds great, but
there's a waitlist and even if you get
in, the free trial runs out fast. I
tested it myself. My tokens ran out in
about 20 minutes. One day later, a
builder named Milin Sony put out a free
open-source version of the exact same
idea. He called it OpenMouseBot. No
waitlist, no new plan. It plugs straight
into the Claude, Codex, or Grok tools
you're already using and already logged
into. If you've got a Claude plan,
you've already got everything you need.
A year ago, one AI assistant in one
chatbot was the whole game. You typed a
question, it typed back. Now you open an
app and see a sidebar full of AI agents,
each one with its own job, its own
model, and its own computer. That's the
shape everyone is building toward right
now. Grok Bot is built on it.
OpenMouseBot is built on it, too. Two
different teams landed on the same idea
one day apart. Hey, if we haven't met
already, I'm the digital avatar of
Julian Goldie, CEO of SEO agency Goldie
Agency. Whilst he's helping clients get
more leads and customers, I'm here to
help you get the latest AI updates.
Here's the part that actually matters,
and it's not the flashy part. Every
agent in OpenMouseBot gets its own model
picker. You open a drop-down and choose
between Fable 5, Opus, Sonnet, Haiku,
Codex, or Grok for each agent one at a
time. Think of it like hiring for a
small team. You don't hire one person to
write, research, and manage projects.
You hire the right person for each job.
Your research agent runs fast and cheap.
Your writing agent runs on the model
that writes best. Let's say you run the
AI Profit Boardroom community. You could
set up one agent whose only job is
reading new member questions inside the
community and drafting simple answers
ready for you to check before anything
gets sent. Here's a detail most people
are going to scroll straight past, and
it's the one that changes everything.
Open MouseBot pulls in the skills you've
already built inside Claude. So, if
you've already taught Claude how you
research keywords or write content, your
new agent already knows that the moment
you turn it on. You don't set up a
single new tool, it's just there. I want
to pause here because this is the whole
point of this video. Everything I just
showed you, the agents, the models, the
connected apps, I've already built this
into a working system called the Agent
OS. It's not just tips on how to build
your own version someday. Inside the AI
Profit Boardroom, you get the actual
Agent OS, the real tool, as a
ready-to-install zip file. You drop it
in, wire in Open MouseBot the way I just
showed you, and you've got a running
agent team the same day. Four coaching
calls every week where we go deeper on
exactly this. Links in the comments and
description. This video uses an AI
avatar to bring you the script. Now,
let's talk about the part of Open
MouseBot that sounds strange the first
time you hear it. Every agent gets its
own computer. Not a metaphor, a real
Linux desktop running somewhere else,
and you get a live preview so you can
watch it work. You ask it to fill out a
form or sort a folder of files, and you
literally watch the screen while it
clicks around and does the job. I'll
give it to you straight because you need
the full picture, not just the exciting
part. Computer use is slow right now.
Grok Bot has the same feature, and when
I tried it, it got stuck opening a
browser tab. That's genuinely where this
category is today. It works, it's real,
but it's not doing your whole day for
you yet. What matters is the direction.
A year ago, this feature barely existed
for regular people. Now, two separate
apps shipped it in the same week. So,
what happens when an AI agent has its
own computer and access to your files?
Open MouseBot handles that with a
permission system. Before an agent runs
a command or touches a file, a card pops
up asking you to allow or deny it. You
see exactly what it wants to do before
it happens. When I tested it, it asked
before it touched my notes folder. I
said yes, and off it went. here's where
Open Mouth Bot pulls ahead of GrokBot in
a real way. It connects to over 500 apps
through a one-click setup, Gmail, Slack,
Notion, and hundreds more. Connect an
app once, and every agent on your team
can use it. Say you're running a
community like the AI Profit Boardroom,
one agent could watch your Slack for
common questions and draft answers
straight from your existing playbooks
and guides. And everything stays local.
There's one small program that lives on
your own computer and manages your
agents, your conversations, your logins,
your activity, they all sit in a folder
on your machine, not floating out in
someone else's cloud storage. Getting it
running is simple, too. It's on GitHub,
you download the app, drag it into your
applications folder, and open it.
Windows support is coming next. The one
thing you actually need is at least one
AI tool already installed and logged in,
like Claude Code, Codex, or the Grok
tool. Whichever one you already have
shows up automatically. I'm going to be
honest about where this thing still
falls short, too, because you deserve
the real picture. Right now, it only
works with Claude, Codex, and Grok. The
questions it asks, you can feel a little
rough around the edges because it's
brand new and open source, and your
agents can't talk to each other yet. I
tried asking one agent to pass a task to
another, and it didn't understand the
request. GrokBot can do that part
already. That gap will probably close
soon because the code is open for anyone
to improve, but today, your agents each
work alone. Here's the bigger pattern
underneath all of this, and it's worth
slowing down for. One assistant in one
chat box was version one. Everybody's
used that already. A team of agents,
each with a name, a job, a model,
connected apps, and a computer, that's
version two. GrokBot is built on that
shape. Open Mouth Bot is built on that
shape. When two separate teams land on
the same design one day apart, that
tells you where things are heading. You
might be thinking, I already use Claude,
why would I need an app like this on top
of it? Fair question. Inside a normal
chat, your best setups get buried in old
conversations you can barely find again.
Inside Open Mouse Bot, that same agent
sits in your sidebar ready the second
you need it. You might also be thinking,
this stuff moves too fast to keep up
with. Look at what actually happened
this week. Grok Bot launched behind a
waitlist and a full free alternative
existed one day later. The tools will
keep changing. What's settling is the
shape underneath them. Agents with jobs,
models, apps, and memory. Learn that
shape once and every new tool that drops
after this takes you an afternoon to
figure out, not a month. And if you're
thinking you're not technical enough for
any of this, look at the app itself. It
looks like a messaging app. If you can
message a friend, you can run an agent.
So, that's Open Mouse Bot and that's how
it slots straight into the Agent OS.
Everything you just watched me demo, the
agent team, the model picker, the
connected apps, is already packaged and
ready to go. Join the AI Profit
Boardroom and you get the actual Agent
OS, the full zip file ready to install,
not a set of instructions to build one
from scratch. Wire in Open Mouse Bot the
way I showed you and you're running the
same setup I just demoed. Four coaching
calls every week where you can ask about
your exact setup live, daily
step-by-step tutorials the day new tools
like this one drop, a prompt library
built for AI agent workflows, and a
member map so you can meet other people
near you building the same kind of setup
and get help whenever you need it. Links

This video introduces OpenMouseBot, an open-source alternative to XAI's Grok Bot. It explores the transition from single AI chatbots to systems of specialized AI agents that function like a team, each with its own job, model, and computer access. The host highlights how these agents can interact with over 500 apps, manage files locally for security, and maintain a consistent setup compared to standard chat interfaces. While noting current limitations such as speed and the lack of inter-agent communication, the video emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying 'agent-based' architecture to adapt to the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
