Pipali is an AI coworker that lives on your computer. It interacts with your files, browser and apps to get real work done. Pipali can handle most computer work — deep research, polished docs, browser tasks and routine errands. Teach it your workflows with Skills, run recurring tasks with Routines and integrate with your apps like Linear, Slack and GitHub via MCP.

Hey Product Hunt 👋,
We built Pipali because we wanted AI to move beyond chat — not just answer questions, but actually operate your computer with you and finish useful work.
Pipali is a desktop AI coworker that can:
research across your files and the web
create briefs, spreadsheets, emails, reports, and personal apps,
run recurring tasks, react quickly to events (from releases to stock prices)
interact with your apps via MCP
work asynchronously and notify you when it needs help
stay safe with sandboxing, permissions, and explicit confirmations
It already helps folks manage investments, generate leads, publish apps and plan sprints.
Things to try:
Draft a weekly project update from your notes, Linear, and Slack
Create a personal newspaper from today’s top stories
Create investor update from your product metrics on PostHog
Optimize your finances from your bank statements or Bank MCP
P.S. We're open-source! Check us out on GitHub: https://github.com/khoj-ai/pipali
We’d love your feedback — especially: what work would you actually delegate to an AI coworker running on your own computer?
I like that Skills and Routines solve the recurring problem where most AI agents are great once but break on the second run. I'm curious as to how Pipali handles conflicts when a Routine triggers while you're actively using the same app it needs to control?

Hey @sailikhith thanks for the thoughtful question! Glad you like the Skills and Routines features in Pipali.
The conflict issue is real and can cause conflict at both the data and the UX layer. Pipali asks you when it wants control of an app, so you can choose when to hand over control to a shared app you're working on. It wouldn't just override your work without you knowing about it. You can also give it access to an isolated instance of the app (e.g Chrome with separate profile) or use a collaborative app (like Google Docs) to work with it in parallel.
Is there a specific workload you're wondering about where this cause problems for you?
Most desktop agents I've seen treat every task like it's starting from scratch — no memory of how you handled something last Tuesday. The Skills feature is the first time I've seen that actually addressed properly. What I'm curious about is how it deals with apps that don't have clean MCP support yet — does it fall back to something like computer use or just fail gracefully

@ganesh_kumar_t good question! Pipali can interact with your filesystem, run terminal commands and control your chrome browser pretty seamlessly. But for desktop apps without MCP tooling or terminal controls, it doesn't have computer use yet (we need better safety, control and seamless handoff mechanisms first)!
