Personal Computer for Windows

What is Personal Computer for Windows?

Personal Computer for Windows is an always-on AI agent designed to run on a Windows desktop and orchestrate work across local files, Microsoft apps, and the web. It runs on the machine where the work happens, so tasks can be carried out in the same environment as the user’s folders and desktop apps.

The product can open, read, and edit files in approved folders, work across Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, and OneDrive, and automate web research and browsing through Comet Browser. It also supports remote execution, so a task can be started from another device and completed on the Windows machine.

Key Features

• Local file access with folder approval — Connect approved folders so the agent can search, read, and write files directly on the Windows computer.
• Microsoft app workflows — Work across Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, and OneDrive without moving information between separate tabs or tools.
• Web automation through Comet Browser — Use the agent to browse, research, and automate web tasks from the same workspace.
• Voice mode — Give spoken instructions and have the agent listen, interpret context, and act on the request.
• Remote execution — Start a task from a phone or another machine and let the Windows desktop complete it.
• Admin controls — Use folder scoping, per-user permissions, and activity logs for IT oversight.
• Model orchestration — Coordinate work across 20+ frontier models for tasks that require deeper reasoning across files and apps.
• Security controls — The agent only accesses folders and apps that are approved, with transparency into the actions it takes.

How to Use Personal Computer for Windows

Join the waitlist and set up the product on a Windows desktop. Then approve the folders and apps you want it to access, and launch tasks from the desktop, by voice, or remotely from another device. Users can point it at local files, work inside Microsoft apps, or ask it to handle web-based research and browsing.

Use Cases

• Editing and organizing local documents — A user can point the agent at approved folders to search, read, and update files stored on the Windows machine.
• Preparing work in Microsoft Office apps — Someone drafting a report or presentation can use the agent to work in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneDrive within the same workflow.
• Researching information on the web — The agent can browse and automate web tasks through Comet Browser while staying connected to the rest of the desktop workflow.
• Starting tasks from another device — A user can trigger a task from a phone or second computer and let the Windows desktop finish it later.
• IT-managed deployment — An admin can apply folder scoping, per-user permissions, and activity logs for controlled use across users.
