Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Automatist because I wanted practical AI automation on the device I already carry, without setting up a server, homelab, or always-on computer.
It started as a small Android workflow runner and gradually evolved into a complete mobile automation app with reusable templates, scheduled workflows, cloud AI providers, supported on-device AI, compatible offline models, execution history, and optional Google Drive backup.
During development, I also changed the product direction. I removed the paid upgrade, made every feature free, removed billing completely, and open-sourced the project under Apache 2.0. Automatist has no ads, subscriptions, or feature paywalls.
I would especially value feedback on three things:
• Which workflows would actually be useful on your phone?
• Which parts of the setup still feel too technical?
• Which Android devices or compatible local models are you testing?
Thanks for checking out Automatist.
Running this entirely on-device without a homelab or always-on laptop is a really thoughtful execution, especially for something that usually demands server power.
