What is Murage
A desktop app where a team of AI bots works for you, led by a Chief of Staff you talk to.
Murage is a desktop app for Mac, Windows and Linux. You talk to one bot, your Chief of Staff. It builds and runs a team of specialist bots for you.
Each bot has its own name, job, engine, memory, skills and permissions. Your first bot is called Ember. Ember is your Chief of Staff. You can rename it at any time.

- Hand off real work: clear an inbox, write a morning brief, research a question, watch competitors.
- Build teams of bots, each with a team lead, or start from 79 ready-made team templates.
- Run work on a schedule with routines, or start it from a webhook.
- Call a bot and talk to it, or get a voice note back.
- Message your Chief from Telegram, Slack, Discord or WhatsApp.
- Let a bot use its own browser (Mac, Windows and Linux), a separate desktop, or your computer, with your permission.
It runs on your computer
Murage is local-first. Your bots, conversations, memory and settings live in a folder on your own computer (~/.murage). The app itself is free and open source under the AGPL-3.0 license.
The AI thinking is done by an engine you choose for each bot: the bundled Fuigo engine, Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Grok Build, OpenClaw, a local model and more. You bring your own subscription or key. The model bill is between you and that provider. See Connect an AI engine.
You stay in charge
Every bot runs at an approval level you pick: Ask, Auto, Full access or No limits. New bots start on Ask.
On Full access, a bot stops before messaging anyone new, posting publicly, paying, or deleting outside its folder, unless you have allowed it for that task.
Read Permissions and the stop line.
What it is not
- It is not a hosted service. Your computer has to be on and Murage has to be running for routines, Telegram and other background work.
- The Murage app is on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android. On any phone you can also open Murage in the browser, and message your Chief from Telegram, Slack, Discord or WhatsApp.
- It has one workspace per installation.
