Overview

TuriX is a computer-use agent from Shenzhen New Generation Technology. You describe a task in plain words, and it reads the screen, then clicks, types and moves between apps the way a person would, without needing each app to offer an API. The maker's desktop app for Mac and Windows is a separate product with its own terms: it needs a TuriX account and runs on monthly credits, with a free plan. The open-source agent in the repository runs on a Mac with Python and your own model keys or a local Ollama model. It suits people who repeat the same steps across desktop apps.

It works through the screen itself, so it can still be used with apps that have no API or integration, such as chat apps or in-house tools.

Good to know

Hand TuriX a multi-step task that crosses desktop apps, such as finding a price in a browser and writing it into a document. It reads the screen, clicks and types through each step, and you watch the actions as they happen.

Limits

  • It acts with the screen permissions you grant, so it can click, type and send things in any open app. Start with a task you can undo, such as changing one setting.
  • The desktop app runs on TuriX credits, and the free plan covers about 20 tasks a month. The open-source version needs Python and model settings in a config file.
