How it Works — Real Use Cases
No account. No separate install. No Big Tech dependency. Every General Bots app ships pre-installed in the suite and runs on infrastructure you own — this is how it works and what teams actually use it for.
Deploy the whole suite on your VPS
One container, every app pre-installed and pre-integrated. Your data stays on your hardware — no accounts, no SaaS gatekeeper.
Open it from the desktop launcher
The app is one click away inside the General Bots desktop. No separate signup, no setup wizard, no credit card.
Drive it with plain language or the API
Ask the AI assistant to do the work — or call the REST API directly from your own tools. The endpoints below are real, from the source code.
