OpenMausBot brings open-source Grok Bot alternative
OpenMausBot is an open-source, local-first alternative to Grok Bot that lets users create specialized bots powered by Claude, Codex, or Grok. Bots can control computers and connect to tools including Gmail, GitHub, and Slack.
OpenMausBot turns Grok Bot’s biggest pitch—persistent AI teammates—into an extensible developer project instead of a proprietary subscription.
- –Supports multiple existing model subscriptions, avoiding lock-in to one provider
- –Computer control and app integrations push it beyond chat into practical automation
- –Bot-specific roles and personalities make repeatable, specialized workflows easier to build
- –Local-first deployment offers more control over data, credentials, and execution environments
- –The tradeoff is polish: open-source flexibility comes with more setup and operational responsibility
