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.

// ANALYSIS

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
