App Connector · Automation
Desktop Automation
Read the screen and work in desktop apps from chat.
Let the assistant control desktop apps: read the screen, click, type, and launch apps.
What you can do
A connector lets the assistant use an app or tool for you. Once connected, ask it to work with Desktop Automation.
Control input
Move the mouse, click, type, and press keyboard shortcuts on your behalf.
See the screen
Capture screenshots and find the buttons, fields, and text on screen.
Manage apps
Launch, switch to, and close desktop apps.
Things you can ask
Type these in chat once the connector is on.
What you need
No account is needed. Plexon downloads the required software to your computer. On macOS, grant Accessibility and Screen Recording permission. Windows and macOS are supported; Linux is not yet available.
Setup details
No account. The first install downloads a local engine (cua-driver). On macOS, grant Accessibility and Screen Recording permission once. Windows and macOS are supported. Linux is not yet available.
When a task uses an online app, that app receives the request. Its results may also be sent to the AI service handling your chat. You can turn the connector on for one workspace and leave it off for another.
More in Automation
Connectors stack: turn on several and the assistant moves work between them.
