Today we’re launching Simular Pro - our first production-grade computer use agent that can use computers like a human.
We built Simular Pro because most AI tools stop at text or APIs. In the real world, workflows often live inside GUIs - spreadsheets, EMRs, CRMs, dashboards - and they change all the time.
Simular Pro currently runs on your mac or macOS virtual machine. It can see the screen, move the mouse, click buttons, type text, and adapt when the UI changes.
How we built it:
Most agents rely purely on LLMs - great explorers, but flaky executors.
RPA tools are stable, but rigid.
Simular Pro combines both to solve the Generality vs. Repeatability problem:
• Neural Agent: explores and adapts.
• Symbolic Agent: locks in what works and executes.
Every action becomes editable, deterministic code — fully transparent and repeatable.
Examples that Simular Pro can do:
1️⃣ Price comparisons on Labubus for my daughter’s birthday → 30 legit options ranked by value in a spreadsheet.
2️⃣ Finding YouTube influencers for Simular’s launch → keyword search, pulled subs/views, ranked top 60 in minutes.
3️⃣ Batch drafting cold emails → pulled leads from CRM, grabbed context, drafted tailored intros; I just reviewed & sent.
4️⃣ Social content from an 18-page paper → drafted an X thread, suggested visuals, loaded into NotebookLLM to spin up a podcast.
5️⃣ Hiring an ex-DeepMind PM → ran LinkedIn search, filtered results, pulled names/roles/schools into a spreadsheet.
6️⃣ End-to-end Xcode build → compiled & packaged app, zipped & uploaded to Google Cloud with auto-update logic.
We’ve seen business customers automate everything from insurance claims processing to healthcare admin to data migration - all without custom integrations.
We’d love your feedback, ideas, and wildest use cases. Drop a comment if there’s something you wish an AI could just handle for you.
@david_huang19 there are two types of agents - API agents and GUI agents. Manus is API + virtual browser. Simular Pro is a dedicated GUI agent on desktop which enables your computer to act independently like a digital worker.
Congrats! Complex dynamic UI elements like pop-ups or multi-layer workflows can disrupt automation reliability. How are you addressing these challenges to ensure repeatable and robust automation?
@vouchy we allow users to insert limited steps of LLM based navigation at any place in the workflow which can help identify accidental popups and close them effectively.
@agidude Since you already built it, I'd focus on others. What you built is a very very great idea, I can tell you that it'd be highly appreciated. Happy to chat.
This is truly fascinating, @Simular ! The 'Neural Agent + Symbolic Agent' approach to solve the Generality vs. Repeatability problem is a brilliant architectural choice. It makes total sense for dynamic GUI environments. The Xcode build automation example really highlights the depth of what Simular Pro can achieve. My main question relates to security: Given that it interacts directly with local applications and potentially sensitive data, what measures are in place for data privacy and access control? 🤔🔒
Realistic simulations powered by advanced AI. Train, test, and explore scenarios with precision and ease. Bringing virtual experiences closer to reality for smarter decisions.

@agidude Steve Jobs gave you a big thumbs up, aha
Simular
Sorry probably a super dumb question, how does this differentiate from other agents like manus, genspark, etc.
Simular
@agidude I see, good insight, thanks for the explanation!
@david_huang19 @agidude Well detailed explanation. Thanks.
It reminded me ad of Cadbury. At this particular moment, every marketer should love it. 😀
Simular
@agidude yeah, even Robbie Williams acted like a gorilla in this movie: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14260836/

That’s wild, the demo is beyond cool and this feels like the kind of leap that makes “computers as teammates” real.
Can already imagine the productivity unlock once this hits Windows. Big fan, watching closely!

Simular Pro is the first agent I've seen that runs on macOS. I already love it after my first try!
Simular
Whoa—being able to automate any macOS workflow, even when the UI changes, is wild and interesting
Absolutely love that it works for macOS.
