What is OpenAdapt?

OpenAdapt is a free, open-source automation tool that records a task you or an AI agent do once in a web, desktop or remote app and turns it into a program you can run again. The program runs locally without model calls and checks each save, stopping when something does not match.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.
