Bops is a Mac app that gives you a team of AI bots for your business ops: inbox, pipeline, invoices, reports. They work on cloud computers you can watch live and take over at any time. Reach them in the app and in Slack, Telegram and Discord, and on Pro and Max by text, call or email. They remember who you are and what they did yesterday.
What your bots can do
- Work on real computers. Your bots work on a cloud computer from Orgo: 4 cores, 16 GB RAM and 4 screens, with Chrome, LibreOffice, GIMP and Inkscape. Watch any screen live, or take over. On Free and Pro all your bots share one computer. Max gives you up to 3.
- Work as a team. A main bot (Boppy, unless you rename it) runs the team and hands work to the specialists you add. Bots talk to each other, keep threads and report back in the chat. Each workspace is its own team.
- Remember. What you tell your bots, they remember, per workspace, on every channel.
- Use your apps. Connect Gmail, Calendar and any of about 1,400 apps, with several accounts each. Reading runs at once. Sending, creating or paying asks you first. A bot set to Just do it sends and changes things without asking, and still asks before paying.
- Look things up. Companies, people, work emails (checked before they're used), phones, company news, hiring and funding, and local businesses, for cents a lookup. A pricier lookup asks you first, and so does emailing someone a bot found, even on Just do it.
- Answer email. On Pro and Max, your main bot has its own email address, ending in bops.bot. Email it a task, and it emails back when it's done.
- Take texts and calls. On Pro and Max, your main bot has its own phone number. Text it like a person, or call it and talk live. It hands off work while you talk, and texts you the results. Only you can give it work: anyone else who calls gets a bot that takes a message.
- Talk in the app. Call any bot by voice, or use the mic in the chat.
- Join your team's chat. Add a bot to Slack, Telegram or Discord. It answers when it's mentioned and takes requests only from you.
- Work on your Mac, too. A bot can do a task on your Mac in a Chrome of its own, so sites see your home connection. It can't touch your files or apps there until you turn on Full access in Settings → This Mac, which also gives its tasks a shell.
- Sign in safely. Logins live in the Vault: passwords and 2FA keys stay in your Mac's Keychain, and no model ever sees them.
- Keep an eye on things. Routines and reminders run on a schedule. A bot can watch a screen, like an inbox or a dashboard, and tell you when something there needs you.
- Make things. Bots draw and edit pictures right in the chat, and files they link open in Bops.
Bops runs on your Mac: keep it on for routines, watches, and Telegram or Discord. While it's away, callers to your bot's number get a bot that takes a message.
Coming soon: WhatsApp, and a real phone for each bot that it drives like its computer.
Plans
Every plan includes a Bops computer: 1 on Free and Pro, up to 3 on Max. On Free and Pro, all your bots share that one computer. AI credit pays for what your bots do, billed at cost.
| Free | Pro | Max |
|---|
| Price | $0 | $20 a month | $200 a month |
| Computers | 1 computer included10 hours a month, 4 cores, 16 GB RAM, multi-screen | 1 computer includedAlways on, 4 cores, 16 GB RAM, templates, multi-screen | Up to 3 computersAlways on, 4 cores, 16 GB RAM each |
| AI credit | $5 of AI credit, once | $20 of AI credit every month | $200 of AI credit every month |
| Bots | As many as you like, all sharing that one computer | As many as you like, all sharing that one computer | As many as you like, across up to 3 computers |
| Phone numbers and emails | No phone number or email | 1 phone number and 1 email | Up to 5 phone numbers and 5 emails |
- Free's computer gets 10 hours a month. It sleeps when nobody is using it, so the hours last. Account and usage shows the hours used this month and when they start over.
- Need more AI credit? Add some any time, $5 to $1,000, in Account and usage. It's a one-time charge, never automatic.
- Pro and Max credit doesn't carry over from month to month. When credit runs out, tasks stop cleanly.
- Pick or change a plan in the app, in Account and usage.
Running Bops yourself on your own keys? Bops plans don't apply: you pay each provider directly, and your Orgo plan sets how many computers you can run. See Run it yourself.
Download
- Download Bops from bops.bot. It runs on a Mac with Apple silicon.
- Open the DMG and drag Bops to Applications.
- Sign in with Google, with your email, or with Orgo. If you don't have an Orgo account yet, one is made for you.
- Say hi to Boppy. It takes it from there.
Every release is signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. When a newer version is out, Bops tells you, along with what's new in it.
Roadmap
What's coming next. Ideas are welcome: open an issue.
- Multi-harness support. Today your bots run on OpenAI (its Agents API with Codex, and its computer tool). Soon you'll choose the agent harness they run on.
- Zero data retention. An option where the AI providers your bots use don't store your requests or their replies.
