What Rosply is
Rosply is a local AI desktop agent that accepts natural-language tasks, reads screenshots, and controls a computer’s mouse and keyboard. It captures a screenshot at each step, allowing interaction with applications without DOM access or app-specific APIs. Actions include clicking, double-clicking, right-clicking, dragging, typing, scrolling, and hotkeys. Tasks can contain up to 200 actions, and Ctrl+H stops one immediately; values can be retained between steps and runs. Rosply supports Windows, macOS, Linux, browser control, and an extension. Its VS Code extension sends code-generation prompts to DeepSeek V3 through OpenRouter and writes files to the current workspace or a new Desktop folder. Listed connections include Claude Code through MCP, Ollama, LM Studio, Gemini, and GPT-4o. Voice activation uses “Hey Rosply,” with Whisper running locally for offline use. The one-time purchase is $29, paid once, including source code, future updates, and one user.
