Automate Your Windows Computer with AI

Pig allows you to operate Windows machines, using AI. Simply connect your Windows machine to the system, and instruct Pig's agent to run automations (click, key entry) using a familiar AI chat interface, or build your own agents with our SDK.

@erik_dunteman1 - great idea! I noticed there's no documentation on how the ai can take control (in a python script)... It's just things you can do with pyautogui.
Is there any AI capabilities that can be embedded into a python script?
Also, is there any publicly available pricing?
This idea is really fascinating! By the way, just curious—why is it called "Pig"?

@kay_arkain It's memorable and brings me joy! I grew up raising pigs and they're smart little critters
Cool app! Why is it called "Pig" tho?

Really cool. I like this new world of: "act, observe, extract". It opens up so many use cases. For testing, for automating repetitive stuff, automating things. And it opens up a whole slew of possibilities in regards to the eco system that has to be built around this new way of interacting with the digital realm. Esp how we make sure how this is used for good. Right now the internet is not as friendly towards bot usage. And you risk getting penalised if you use automation in the wrong way. esp on social media, and operating on data silos etc. IMO I think we need to make bot / automation certificates to allow automation without penalizing the user. Any thoughts on this part? I would love to use automation on so many things. but I also dont want to go to linkedin jail because their very sensitive algos detect bot usage 😅

@sentry_co Spot on with the auth challenges! The concept of "identity and permissions" is one of the big hurdles to figure out in computer-use. Especially once we launch Pig Cloud (hosted, ephemeral VMs), it stops being about running your own computer for you and starts being about massively parallelizing tasks. For example, is it acting as "you"? Or is it a special side-role that has permissions to access your accounts? Or does it need its own set of accounts? How does licensing then work?
The self-hosted setup helps us defer this question for longer since it's effectively "you", but I've been chatting with the folks at https://arcade.dev/ who are solving these exact questions in identity and auth. I'm planning to work with them as use-cases become more clear.

@erik_dunteman1 Yepp. It has to come from your IP, for now, accessing your credentials etc. I think, a chrome extension would be the ultimate personal AI agent. As it is on your IP, and has access to google credentials etc for auth. And chrome extensions can operate on websites. The: "Act, Observe, Extract" actions. Yes, you dont get full computer access, but more than half of the stuff we do, is done in a browser. Also auth is solved out of the box, which is a huge hassle with automation. Also you can parallelize tasks, sort of. Open many tabs 😸 Do you think will we see Pig Chrome extension? 🐽 Btw I'm also working a bit in this space. But with the testing part. Progress so far (first release soon): https://github.com/eonist/TestRunner/issues/15
