Give your desktop software automation it never had.
Tell Knotwork what you'd tell a new hire. It does the work in the programs you already use, follows your rules, and asks before it saves.
“Skilled people spend hours every week hand-keying data into software that’s never going to get an API. I built Knotwork because that gap seemed genuinely worth closing.”

How it works
- 01Describe the jobIn plain English, the way you'd brief a new hire. Knotwork writes the plan and shows you every step first.
- 02It follows your rulesTeach it once. It keeps a playbook for each of your apps, and follows your rules every time.
- 03You say yes, it savesNothing is saved without your okay, and every run can be replayed screen by screen.
Built for the person who has to say yes
Automation you can hand real work to, because you can see and stop everything it does.
Nothing saved without your okay
It pauses, shows exactly what it's about to save and the screen it's on, and waits for you. Approve from your phone.
It learns your way of doing things
Teach it rules like you would a new hire. It keeps a playbook for each app and follows it every time.
Every run, replayable
Each task keeps every screen it saw and every step it took. Share a replay with anyone you choose.
Only the apps you choose
The limit is enforced on your own computer, not just in the instructions. Personal apps are always off-limits.
Watch a full run, start to finish

I saw this problem firsthand working inside HCA and at Cherry Bekaert here in Nashville: skilled people spending hours every week hand-keying data into software that’s never going to get an API, because replacing it outright is a six-figure decision nobody actually wants to make. I built Knotwork because that gap seemed genuinely worth closing. Not with another migration project, but by automating the manual work around the software you already trust.
My goal is simple: give every business running on “good enough for now” legacy software a real way to reclaim the hours that go into keeping it fed, without asking them to rip anything out. For the businesses I work with, that means fewer nights spent catching up on data entry, and more time actually running the business.
