b buddy coming fall 2026

a digital intern
still on the job next week.

buddy works on a real computer and browser, with a persistent filesystem that survives between runs. workflows can span days, and it asks before anything leaves your account.

you're on the list. we'll be in touch.

autopilot

it plans. you approve. then it runs.

press autopilot and buddy drafts a plan first: the goal, what done looks like, the inputs it has, and the questions it still needs answered. ask for changes over as many rounds as you like. nothing runs until you say so, and the approved plan is saved to your project as plan.md.

plan v2 nothing runs until you approve
goalanswer the weekend's mail, drafting replies for your approval rather than sending them.
done whenevery thread is answered, filed, or waiting in approvals with a draft attached.

view only. take over to interact. take over
a real computer

watch the screen live. take the keys anytime.

buddy drives a full desktop and browser, not an api shim. watch every click as it happens, expand the screen to half or full width, double-click to take over, and hand back when you're done. type into the bubble to steer without touching anything.

a filesystem that survives

the work is still there next week.

files live in a store that outlasts any session. projects link the folders they need, drafts and notes accumulate, and the next run picks up exactly where the last one held. drag files in, rename, edit, and read everything buddy writes.

tools in this session 32/52
your apps, on a budget

click through the apps buddy can touch.

gmail, slack, linear, github, notion and more connect as mcp servers. toggle them per session from the chat bar, watch the tool meter fill, and anything that would blow the budget simply won't fit. connections that need your login authorize once in settings.

approvals first

nothing leaves your account without a yes.

sends, posts, and payments stop and wait for you, with the exact plan and tools on the card. stop a run mid-flight and it holds at the boundary. resume with a note, or cancel for good. asking is always free.
