Sai
Product Hunt Justin Jincaid
Simular launched Sai, a robosecretary that runs apps by itself across Windows, Mac, and Linux. It can work through software with no API, which is the part that makes it interesting.

Simular is pitching a pretty bold idea: computers that operate software the way people do. Its new tool, Sai, is meant to handle the kind of screen work that usually eats hours — opening apps, clicking buttons, typing into forms, and moving through workflows on its own.
The company is calling Sai the world’s first robosecretary, and the pitch leans hard into autonomy. Sai works with a fleet of autonomous computers, rather than a single assistant bolted onto one app. That matters because it’s aimed at the messy side of computing, where the software isn’t neat or modern and the easy integration points just aren’t there.
That includes legacy desktop software, internal portals, and systems hidden behind a login. In other words, the places where APIs often stop and humans start. Sai is designed to interact with the interface directly, reading the screen, clicking through, and filling things in the way a person would.
Simular says the system supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, and this is its fifth launch. The company also points to a 73% score on OSWorld, which gives the launch a little more substance than the usual demo-video fog. The bigger story here is less about one product and more about the direction Simular wants computing to go: software that doesn’t just assist, but actually gets on with the job.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
The real tell here is the obsession with software that lacks APIs. That’s where a lot of enterprise reality lives, which is why this sounds less like sci-fi and more like a very expensive workaround. The open question isn’t whether autonomy is cool; it’s whether people want their computers acting like overconfident interns on the corporate desktop.
