Getting Started
What AKOS is and the three ways to use it — the multi-tenant web app, the self-hosted desktop app, and the agentskit-os CLI.
AKOS is the operating system for AI agents in production. It lets your team add governed AI agents to any business process — finance, legal, healthcare, marketing, support, operations — and run them supervised, permissioned, and fully audited.
Wherever a person owns a process, AKOS turns that process into a flow, the flow drives agents, the agents call tools, and everything in between is governed: identity, permissions, sandboxing, an egress allowlist, cost tracking, and a signed audit trail.
Three ways to use AKOS
AKOS is one product with three surfaces. They share the same workspace, agents, flows, and governance.
| Surface | Best for | How you get in |
|---|---|---|
| Web app | Teams who want nothing to install | Multi-tenant cloud — sign in to your workspace URL |
| Desktop app | Private / regulated / air-gapped deployments | Self-hosted desktop application |
| CLI | Automation, CI, and power users | agentskit-os command line |
Not sure which to start with? Most teams begin in the web app to build and supervise their first flow, then add the CLI to automate runs from CI. Regulated environments that require data never to leave their network run the desktop app self-hosted.
