What taskt is

taskt is a free, open-source robotic process automation client for Windows, built in C# on the .NET Framework. Its visual bot designer offers dozens of commands for creating automations without a traditional code-first workflow. Element and screen recorders capture and replay scripted actions, while bots automate web and desktop applications by simulating user actions. taskt can use .NET DLLs and services, compile code through a Custom Code command, and launch VB or PowerShell scripts. The project also lists Excel workbook support and OCR, with OneNote required for OCR. An optional server component can publish and execute tasks remotely and monitor bot health and metrics; that component is currently described as alpha. taskt is free for personal and commercial use under Apache 2.0. Minimum requirements include Windows, 1 GB RAM, 200 MB disk space, one vCPU, and .NET Framework 4.8. Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2016 are no longer supported.
