A free, open-source AI agent that runs entirely on your machine — controls your computer like you would, works across any app, and handles arbitrary tasks: writing code, analyzing images, organizing files, researching and building spreadsheets, whatever you throw at it. Unlike Claude Cowork, nothing leaves your device.
README
EverFern opening Spotify and playing a song — no scripts, no automation code, just plain English.
EverFern is a desktop AI agent that uses your computer the way you would — clicks buttons, navigates apps, fills forms, runs workflows. You describe what you want in plain English. It figures out the steps and does it.
No subscription. No cloud. Nothing leaves your machine.
It's the free, open-source alternative to Claude Cowork, Manus Desktop, and OpenWork.
