Platform Capabilities

AskUI is an enterprise-ready platform that enables AI agents to control desktop and mobile devices through visual understanding. Unlike browser-only or chat-based solutions, AskUI provides comprehensive automation across all platforms and applications.

Key Differentiators

  • Universal Platform Support: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS
  • Enterprise-Ready: On-premise deployment, security features, and corporate proxy support
  • True Background Automation: Agents can work without taking over your mouse and keyboard
  • Visual Intelligence: No dependency on DOM or application internals
  • Flexible Integration: Python and TypeScript SDKs with CI/CD support
