Dash Bot documentation
Build a team of AI agents that can talk, use tools, operate computers, and keep working on a schedule.
Local-first agent workspace
A clean first-run bot. Each conversation belongs to a real agent process, not a simulated contact.
Dash Bot turns agent CLIs into a familiar desktop chat app. Each bot can have its own model, instructions, working folder, connected apps, computer, and recurring work.
