Hey Product Hunt 👋
Yesterday OpenAI launched Dots: always-on agents with their own computer and browser, working for you around the clock. It's a big moment. It confirms what we've believed since we started building Melete: everyone is about to have an agent that never logs off.
We think that agent should belong to you.
Why we built it: My to-do list was full of things AI could do, and none of them got done. The best AI tools answered questions brilliantly, then left all the doing to us. We wanted an agent that takes the task, keeps going when you close the tab, and only comes back when something genuinely needs you. Something open, personalized and model agnostic.
What Melete does today:
- Runs 24/7 and picks work back up when a reply, a date or an event comes in
- Works on its own computer, with its own browser, connected to your email and calendar
- Uses any model you choose: Claude, GPT, Gemini or open models, switchable any time
- Shows you what it has learned about you, and lets you correct it
- Asks before anything that matters goes out, and leaves a receipt for everything it does
How it evolved: we started with a simple assistant and kept running into the same wall. People won't hand real work to an agent they can't see into. So transparency became the product: open source, runs on your machine, every action traceable, your memory stays yours when you switch models.
Coming next:
- A privacy layer that keeps your account numbers and health details from ever reaching a cloud model
- Your own laptop and browser as the agent's home base, so it acts as you on the sites you're already logged into
- A memory you can rewind
We'd love your honest take: what's the first job you'd hand an agent that never sleeps?
