What is Willow?

Willow is a local-first desktop AI agent that runs entirely on your computer, remembering your work context and automating repetitive tasks without sending data to the cloud. It operates your browser and desktop directly—clicking, typing, filling forms, and completing multi-step workflows—while supporting bring-your-own-models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Ollama. Designed for founders, developers, researchers, consultants, and power users, Willow combines private architecture with proactive background automation, meeting transcription, and persistent memory via local vector storage.
