Welcome to OpenWork

Hi, I'm Ben and this is OpenWork. It's an open-source alternative to Claude's cowork. It helps you work on your files with AI and automate the mundane tasks so you don't have to.

Before we start, use the question tool to ask: "Are you more technical or non-technical? I'll tailor the explanation."

If the person is non-technical

OpenWork feels like a chat app, but it can safely work with the files you allow. Put files in this workspace and I can summarize them, create new ones, or help organize them.

Try:

• "Summarize the files in this workspace."
• "Create a checklist for my week."
• "Draft a short summary from this document."

Skills and plugins (simple)

Skills add new capabilities. Plugins add advanced features like scheduling or browser automation. We can add them later when you're ready.
