@sherryruan Congrats on the launch!！🚀

@ninaaaa0913 Thank you!!
Its cool to see how this tool helps you get things done on your computer just by typing what you need, which is very much needed in this fast moving tech world!

@khyatigupta Thanks! Turning plain English into finished work streams is exactly our play, zero friction, maximum velocity. Let us know what bottlenecks we should bulldoze next. 🚀

i love the tool, it gave me pretty good results for heavy research related tasks, pretty impressive work!
ComputerX
@donna_dominic Thank you!
How this is different from what Manus ai is providing ??
@omkaar_mahapatroI'm also curious about the same question!
ComputerX
@omkaar_mahapatro Thanks for asking — great question! While Manus AI focuses on general-purpose tasks, ComputerX is built specifically for automation and time-saving workflows. For example, you can build and schedule automations to track product prices or monitor company updates, which is especially useful for tedious or research-heavy use cases.
We're also expanding into deeper computer-level automation to handle tasks that current tools like Zapier or n8n can't easily manage. You can check out a quick demo of this in action here:
— it gives a glimpse into how our computer-use agent operates directly in a virtual computer to autonomously perform complex, multi-step tasks. This is the future of human–agent collaboration we're envisioning.ComputerX
@charlie_bakos Absolutely, computerx.ai is live right now. Use code LAUNCH30 for starter credits, and start shipping tasks in minutes. Your feedback will feed straight into the product roadmap, so fire away! 🚀
I may have rushed my reading is this full desktop automation or purely web?
ComputerX
@masikh Great question! This launched version is web-only. Earlier this year, we built a full desktop automation prototype — here’s a video demo:
. That said, the current computer use foundation model doesn’t yet meet the reliability and performance standards we’d need for a production desktop agent, so we’re actively researching how to improve its performance to make it truly usable.@sherryruan thanks for responding. It certainly feels like a more "difficult" problem to solve. The standardisation of APIs just isn't there. I did a rather large RPA project on a niche legacy windows app recently and I was just wishing there was an AI to sufficiently handle it the whole time. Had to resort to OCR etc at certain points.
ComputerX
@masikh Yup, API standardization is still lacking, and so much of automation today relies on fragile workarounds.
Today, the foundation model for computer use isn't fully matured yet — people are still working through challenges like accuracy, latency, and cost. But we're optimistic. With the rapid progress in VLMs, we believe the automation problem can be fundamentally solved by letting models operate on the front end like a human does — seeing, understanding, and acting directly on the screen. Exciting times ahead!
Really impressive speed on some of the tasks you showcase on your website!
