In the fast-evolving world of AI, many solutions operate in code-only environments. But what about agents that can control real software — just like a human user?
Agent S is an open-source Agentic AI framework built for exactly that. Developed by Simular AI, it empowers autonomous agents to interact with real-world applications through direct GUI control — mouse clicks, keyboard inputs, and on-screen navigation.
🧠 How Agent S Operates Across Operating Systems
Agent S allows AI agents to perform tasks across Windows, Android, and Linux environments. With benchmark environments like AndroidWorld, OSWorld, and WindowsAgentArena, developers can rigorously evaluate agent performance in realistic software tasks.
The modular design enables integration of LLMs, vision models, and reasoning engines — making it a flexible foundation for advanced agent behaviors.
🔍 Key Features at a Glance
✅ GUI-Level Control: Simulates mouse movement, clicks, typing, and more
🔁 Cross-OS Support: Works across Windows, Android, Linux
🧠 Multimodal Reasoning: Combines vision, language, and tools for complex tasks
🧪 Benchmark Environments: Includes simulated real-world GUI testbeds
🧩 Modular Architecture: Plug in your own models and logic components
🚀 Open-Source by Design
Agent S was developed by researchers from DeepMind (now at Simular AI) and released as a transparent and extensible system for the research and developer community. Its successor, AgentS2, launched in 2025, continues the open-source tradition with upgraded capabilities.
📌 Example Scenario
An AI agent opens an Android emulator, configures settings, downloads test apps, launches a sequence of UI interactions, logs outputs, and closes the app — all hands-free. That’s the kind of agent-driven automation Agent S enables.
