PenguinBot is an action-first AI that turns conversations into real work. It manages emails, schedules tasks, creates documents, and runs workflows automatically. Just tell it what you need — it plans, executes, and keeps things moving in the background. Autonomous, secure, and built to run 24/7 so you can focus on what matters.

Top comment

We built PenguinBot because most AI tools still stop at giving answers. We wanted an AI that actually does the work. PenguinBot turns simple instructions into real actions — managing emails, scheduling tasks, creating documents, and running workflows automatically in the background. The goal is simple: less prompting, more execution. This is just the beginning, and we’re building it closely with the community. I’d love your honest feedback: • What would you automate first? • What integrations should we build next? • What would make this part of your daily workflow? I’ll be here all day answering questions. Thanks for checking out PenguinBot — excited to hear what you think!

Comment highlights

long-running agents doing real tool calls will hit reliability issues fast (retries, partial failures, duplicate side effects) plus auditability for “who did what when”. Best practice: put actions behind durable execution with idempotency keys and event sourcing, e.g., Temporal or Azure Durable Functions, and add tracing plus guardrails via the OpenAI Agents SDK. Question: how are you persisting workflow state and enforcing idempotent tool execution across OAuth refresh, retries, and multi-step plans, and do you support approval gates for high-risk actions?

I like the focus on actually doing things instead of just generating text. The real question is how much babysitting these agents need once they’re live. If it’s truly hands-off, that’s interesting

If PenguinBot actually runs workflows end-to-end (not just drafts emails), that’s where value is background execution, not chat. But reliability will decide everything: autonomy is amazing… until you have to double-check every action.

24/7 autonomy is powerful. Curious how you’re handling usage limits and cost control when the agent is making its own decisions — that’s going to matter a lot as these scale.

The autonomous execution angle is interesting for repetitive BD work — follow-up sequences, meeting prep, document drafts. But when client-facing communication is involved, I'd need some kind of review step before anything gets sent. How does PenguinBot handle approval workflows for outbound messages?

very cool! could you explain what penguin might offer over openclaw or Claude code?

I have a few questions. You mention 3000 skills, but on pricing you mention access to 30 skills. It's a bit confusing. Could you clarify?

Also, you mention an x/monitor skill. You have it on the front page. How does it work? From what I know, x restricts bots through API access.

Nice product. I love the design. However, I don't see any particular reason on why I should use penguinbot and not other AI orchestrating tools such as n8n or opencode. Would love to hear your opinions

Excited to share PenguinBot’s long-term vision :

Today, PenguinBot helps users automate workflows and connect across the tools they already use.
Our future scope is to become a true cross-platform AI workspace companion:

  • Native apps on Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS for seamless access anywhere

  • Smarter multi-step automations that can plan, execute, and adapt in real time

  • Voice-first interactions for hands-free productivity

  • Better team collaboration with shared context and sync across devices

  • A growing integration ecosystem so PenguinBot fits into every workflow, not the other way around

Our goal is simple: make advanced AI automation feel effortless, personal, and available everywhere.
Would love your feedback on which feature you want us to prioritize next 🙌

We built PenguinBot to go further — to actually do the work.

Give it a simple instruction, and it takes action:
• Manages emails
• Schedules tasks
• Creates documents
• Runs workflows quietly in the background

No endless prompting.
No copy-pasting between tools.
Just execution.

Our belief is simple: AI shouldn’t just assist you — it should operate with you.

PenguinBot is still evolving, and we’re building it hand-in-hand with the community.
