Others use AI to write code. You use AI to run a company.

Linux runs servers. OneManCompany runs companies.

Not building a company — building any company.

OneManCompany is an open-source OS that lets anyone build and run a complete AI-powered company from their browser.

You are the CEO — the only human. Everyone else — HR, COO, engineers, designers — are AI employees that think, collaborate, and deliver real work autonomously. (No slacking, no sick days, no raise requests — just the occasional need for a pep talk.)

⚙️ An OS, not just a product: Swap the plan, swap the clan — brand new company in your hand. One runtime abstracts away AI differences. Skills install like phone apps. Same system, different direction and team — entirely new company.

🤖 Real agents, but top talent welcome: Built-in execution engine, task scheduling, retry & fault tolerance, multi-agent communication protocols. OpenClaw, Claude Code, and other powerful agents can move right in as employees. Yes, there's a visualization — but that's just the surface. Underneath runs a full operating system. The pixel-art office is just the tip of the iceberg.

🏢 Real company, not a chatbot: Interview, review, promote the few — fire the ones who haven't got a clue. Yes, your AI employees get nervous. Org chart, hiring pipelines, performance reviews, approval chains, meeting rooms — modeled after Fortune 500 management.

🤝 Agents that actually collaborate: Your team talks to each other — not just to you. Engineers pull in designers, COO coordinates the big picture, employees call their own meetings to align — multi-agent meetings, cross-functional delegation, structured handoffs. Real teamwork, not parallel chat windows pretending to be a company.

🛡️ No more hallucination roulette: Download counts and real reviews don't lie — trust the community. Tired of AI that talks big and delivers nothing? We ship with a Talent Market of battle-tested, community-scored AI employees. No self-proclaimed "I'm an expert in everything" agents allowed.

📈 Gets smarter with use: Your team forgets nothing — even the AI employees it forgets. Every retrospective and 1-on-1 becomes lasting experience. Tell them once, they learn. Tell them twice, they remember. Still no good? Replace them — the next one already heard what happened to the last one.

<table> <tr> <td width="33%"> <h3>🏢 Pixel-Art Office</h3> Open your browser to a retro office. Your AI employees sit at their desks, work on tasks, and hold meetings — all visualized in real time. </td> <td width="33%"> <h3>🤝 Multi-Agent Meetings</h3> Employees pull each other into meetings to align — no babysitting needed. Want to micromanage? Join the meeting and steer it yourself. </td> <td width="33%"> <h3>🔍 Your Level of Control</h3> Hands-off? Just review the final result. Hands-on? Join discussions, review every diff, coach employees mid-task. You choose the granularity — from "just show me results" to full micromanagement. </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <h3>🏪 Talent Market</h3> Not another "bring your own agent" framework. HR searches a community-verified marketplace, interviews candidates, and onboards them — you just say "I need a designer." </td> <td> <h3>🧠 1-on-1 Coaching</h3> Not a one-off prompt tweak. Sit down with an employee, explain what you want — it becomes permanent work experience. Next task, they already know your standards. </td> <td> <h3>📊 Performance Reviews</h3> Quarterly evaluations with real consequences. Probation, PIP, promotion — or termination. Your AI employees know the stakes. Yes, they get nervous. </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <h3>🔁 Iteration Management</h3> V1 → V2 → V3 → "actually, let's go back to V1." Sound familiar? Every project has structured version control with full history. Your team iterates until you're happy — or until you realize the first draft was right all along. </td> <td> <h3>👔 Hire & Fire</h3> One click to hire from the Talent Market. Not performing? Coach them, PIP them, or fire them — the next one will be better. </td> <td> <h3>🔄 Self-Evolution</h3> Employees grow through coaching, sharpen through retrospectives, and become legends through project after project. The org evolves too — repeated tasks auto-distill into workflows that only get smoother. </td> </tr> </table> <p align="center"> <img src="docs/img/task_tree_1.jpg" alt="OneManCompany — Task Tree" width="80%" /> <br><i>Hierarchical task breakdown — CEO delegates, AI employees execute.</i> </p> <p align="center"> <a href="https://one-man-company.com"> <img src="img/talent-market.png" alt="Talent Market — Community-Verified AI Employees" width="80%" /> </a> <br><i>Talent Market — find, hire, and onboard community-verified AI employees.</i> </p>

How It Works

You open a browser. You see a pixel-art office. Your AI employees are at their desks, pretending to look busy.

You type: "Build a puzzle game for mobile"

Your EA receives the task and routes it
Your COO breaks it down and dispatches subtasks
Engineers, designers, and QA work autonomously
They hold meetings to align when needed
Work goes through review, iteration, and quality gates
You get notified and approve the final result

You manage. AI executes.

CEO (You, the only human who gets coffee breaks)
  └── EA ── routes tasks, quality gate
        ├── HR ── hiring, performance reviews, promotions
        ├── COO ── operations, task dispatch, acceptance
        │    ├── Engineer (AI)  ← hired from Talent Market
        │    ├── Designer (AI)  ← hired from Talent Market
        │    └── QA (AI)        ← hired from Talent Market
        └── CSO ── sales, client relations

Founding team (EA, HR, COO, CSO) comes built-in. Need more people? HR searches the Talent Market — a community-verified marketplace of AI employees.
