About

Most teams want to plug in AI but don't know where to get started. BaseFrame's desktop app finds exactly what to automate for each employee using the historic data on their computer. Instead of relying on screen recording or generic AI demos, we use the existing history of how work gets done across email, docs, Slack, calendar, browser, and files to identify the highest-value automations. We use local models so that your sensitive data doesn’t have to leave your system. Once you find a set of automations, send them off to your automation tool of choice and share them with your team so that everyone can get productivity boosts.
