Hi! This is Ben from OpenWork.
We're building an open source, enterprise-ready alternative to Claude Cowork that companies can deploy internally — with their own LLMs, their own infrastructure, and their own compliance posture.
We launched 3 months ago, and already have 14k GitHub stars and 150k+ downloads.
OpenWork is:
- Desktop that you can provide to your non-technical employees.
- Cloud that lets you administer which skills, plugins, mcps your users have access to.
Some advantages over Claude Cowork:
- Deploy it where you want. Use our cloud, or self-host on-premise, in your cloud, or hybrid. Companies with stricter requirements keep everything inside their trust perimeter.
- Model-independent, cost-controlled. Bring your own: self-hosted, Bedrock, Azure, Vertex, or any of 50+ providers. Route per task so you only pay frontier prices when it actually matters.
- Reuses what you have. Internal MCPs, runbooks, scripts, and docs become agent capabilitie
- Shared across the team. Technical and non-technical teammates use the same agents from the UI, Slack, or Telegram.
Open source. No lock-in on infra or models.
Ways to get started:
1. Try the desktop app - no sign-in required
2. Sign in to our cloud
