Meet ands

AI got good at answering. Most of what fills our day, though, isn't a question. It's a chore: move these files, fill in that form, send the invoices, change the setting nobody can find.

ands gives AI hands. You ask, in words or out loud, and it does the job on your computer. It opens apps, clicks, types and sends, the way you would.

ands, the helper inside

When you download ands you meet ands. ands works in three moves:

1. It writes a plan. Before touching anything, ands tells you what it's about to do, in plain words.
2. It waits for your go. Nothing happens until you say yes.
3. It shows every step. An orange hand moves across the screen, so you always see what's going on, and you can stop it at any moment.

It reads the screen like a person

ands doesn't guess from pixels. It reads the screen through the same accessibility tools that screen readers use, so it knows that a thing is the Send button, not a blue rectangle. That makes it accurate, and it lets the safety check know exactly what is about to be clicked.

Always your call

Some steps can't be undone: sending a message, paying, deleting, installing. ands always stops and asks before those, and the check lives outside the AI, so nothing it reads along the way can talk it out of asking. How approvals work goes into the details.

For developers too

The same engine is an MCP server and a CLI. If you already use Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, one line gives your agent hands:

claude mcp add ands -- npx -y andsh mcp
