What is Bytebot?

Bytebot is an open‑source AI desktop agent that runs in containerized Linux desktop environments, allowing natural language commands to control the mouse, keyboard, and applications such as browsers, editors, terminals, and file managers. It supports multiple AI backends—including Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, and LiteLLM—and can integrate password managers for secure logins, including two‑factor authentication.

The agent executes multi‑app workflows, processes documents, extracts data from PDFs, and performs UI automation with fine‑grained control and screenshot logs for auditability. Self‑hosted deployments keep all data within the user’s infrastructure, and Docker compose enables scaling from a single agent to hundreds.
