Hi, my name is Timothy and I've been working on Nelly for the last few months.
Nelly is an AI agent/assistent platform where you can build, use and soon share AI agents. You create the agents by simply writing instructions in natural language, and you can break down these instructions into smaller parts as sub-agents. You then use these agents with Nelly's chat interface to perform tasks for you.
Nelly is a desktop app, currently for Mac but soon also for Windows and Linux, that you install on your computer. The agents and their data are stored on your computer but the LLM used for decision making, etc. is running in the cloud (currently Claude 3.7 Sonnet via OpenRouter). With a paid subscription you can connect Nelly directly to your own LLM providers.
You will soon be able to both share and explore third-party tools and agents on the Marketplace. Built-in tools at the moment include a browser, a calculator, and a database.
Read about how I use Nelly to pay out my salary, from calculating the net salary, making the bank transfers, and declaring it to the tax authorities, to recording it in my accounting software:

This is just the beginning, the next step is to add MCP support, then launch the Marketplace with both agents and tools, and improving the platform with file support and more.
I'm looking forward to see what you build!
I just tried building a simple agent to fill out a form using the provided data, and it worked really well- 3 out of 4 forms were submitted successfully, so there’s still a bit to improve, but overall it’s promising. Earlier today, I accomplished the same task using Automatio.io, but the key difference was setup time: Automatio took me about 10 minutes (and I had to click a lot!), while Nelly handled it in just 1 minute. I’m definitely planning to push it further with more complex scenarios. Combining NLP and RPA really feels like the future of automation
@przemyslaw_szustak Nice, that's awesome, thanks for testing! 🔥 Do you know what happened with the failed attempt? Feel free to provide feedback directly to me at timothy@nelly.is or on any of the following platforms:
Tip: Move the Form Builder to a sub-agent and then have the main agent call the sub-agent with each number. That should increase reliability and speed (but it will consume more message credits).
Keep the app updated - new improvements are rolled out almost everyday! 🚀

This is super cool! Love how Nelly makes knowledge sharing within teams so much faster and smoother. Definitely something modern workplaces could use. Great job!

From automating simple daily tasks to orchestrating complex workflows - all without writing a single line of code. This could be the gateway for so many people to start leveraging AI agents in their work.

Great product! It would be great if you could integrate with Zapier.

agents are tough to build so a simple and easy marketplace sounds awesome
