# Taskilo

> Persistent AI teammates for web, desktop and mobile.

Taskilo is a Grok Bot alternative that gives each bot a sandboxed browser and shell. Bots can use connected tools, save repeatable routines as readable Markdown, work on a schedule, and pause for approval when a task crosses a boundary you set. Supported self-hosting is coming soon.

Sign in with Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT Plus/Pro, or use an API key, OpenRouter, Grok or SuperGrok, or a local OpenAI-compatible server (Ollama, LM Studio). Taskilo does not pay the model bill. Use the desktop and mobile apps with your Taskilo account. Supported self-hosting is coming soon.

## Best-fit jobs

- Repeated browser and shell workflows that should keep running after the first chat.
- Inbox, sales, recruiting, expense, support, and operational routines that need durable context.
- Coding Agent interviews you about the repo and the change, then works on the computer you run and checks back before going further.
- Repeatable AI automation with connected tools, audit logs and approval boundaries.

## FAQ

### Can I use my Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT Plus/Pro subscription?

Yes — sign in with that subscription, or use an API key / OpenRouter / a local OpenAI-compatible server (Ollama, LM Studio, etc.). Taskilo does not pay the model bill.

### Do I need an API key if I already pay for Claude or ChatGPT?

No. Sign in with Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT Plus/Pro and that subscription covers the model. An API key is the other path, for Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, or Grok. Taskilo does not pay either way.

### Can I run a local model?

Yes. Point a bot at a local OpenAI-compatible server such as Ollama or LM Studio. Each bot can use a different model.
