Faby is a virtual coworker with its own computer, browser, and coding environment. It plugs into your company stack and completes real tasks end to end from Slack.
Faby is a virtual coworker that lives in Slack. You ask it for work in plain language, and it uses its own computer, browser, coding environment, and connected company tools to complete the task end to end.
It can pull data, build reports or dashboards, research information, update systems, write and ship code, triage tickets, and move work across tools like a teammate would.
Faby started from a simple frustration: teams ask for work in Slack, but most tools only answer with advice and leave the actual execution to humans.
I wanted to build a coworker that could take a real request, use the company’s tools, browse, write code when needed, and return finished work where the conversation already happens.
The approach evolved from “chat assistant” into “agent with
a computer” because the hard part is not generating text. It is completing the messy steps across apps, context, files, data, and code.

A virtual coworker with its own computer living in Slack is fascinating — most AI agents just reply in chat, not actually execute. Curious how you handle security boundaries. Can Faby install packages or access internal tools, or is it locked to a sandboxed environment?
Hi Krish
I enjoyed your demo on Faby
Do you envision this working only for technical teams?

Most AI tools just answer questions but Faby actually does things and that's the difference that matters. When working on team projects, switching between tools constantly kills productivity. Having a virtual coworker that lives in Slack and has its own computer to actually execute tasks rather than just suggest them is exactly what collaborative development needs. How well does it handle longer multi step tasks without needing check-ins?
