Custom AI agentsWe build and run an agent for one jobPricingAboutBlogCowork merged into Claude chat and now runs sessions in the cloud, and some users say limits arrive faster. Here are 10 alternatives with prices read on each vendor page, who each fits, one honest limit for each, and the free and local options.
Checked October 26, 2026. Prices were read on each vendor's own pricing or help page; some pages load prices behind JavaScript or a login, and we say so where that happened. Prices change: re-check before you buy. Dooza Crew is our product; we list it last and say where others fit better.
If you also pay for ChatGPT, try ChatGPT Work. If your company runs on Microsoft 365, try Copilot Cowork. If you live in Google apps, try Gemini Spark. For a hosted all-rounder, try Manus or Genspark. For research, try Perplexity. To keep work on your own machine for free, use OpenWork, OpenClaw or Hermes Agent. For a small business that wants a team of agents, try Dooza Crew.

OpenAI says "Work is an agent designed for longer, multi-step work and finished deliverables." It replaced ChatGPT agent, and its cloud browser runs on a separate computer in the cloud, so tasks keep going after you close your laptop.
Google calls Spark "your 24/7 personal AI agent". With your permission, "Spark can use your logged-in accounts and saved passwords" in Chrome, and it hands payments back to you.
Manus does research, websites and slides end to end. Its cloud browser can visit sites, click buttons and fill forms, and you can log into your own accounts in it. Every paid plan allows 20 tasks at once and 20 scheduled tasks.
Genspark's Claw is "your first AI employee". It runs on a dedicated cloud computer, or locally through the desktop app with no Cloud Computer subscription, which suits people who miss local Cowork.
Comet is Perplexity's AI browser, "the browser that works for you", on Mac, Windows, iOS and Android. Perplexity says Computer "creates personalized apps, tools, docs, and more".
xAI says "Bots have their own computer." They sign into your tools and "only come back when something needs your approval."
OpenWork calls itself "The open-source alternative to Claude Cowork". OpenClaw (MIT) runs on your own computer and answers in WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram and 20+ more apps. Hermes Agent (MIT) has memory and a built-in scheduler.
Muse is "a personal AI agent" that runs on a dedicated secure computer with its own browser. You talk to it in the Muse app or in WhatsApp.
You tell Dooza, your master agent, the job in plain words from the web or your phone; it plans it, builds the helper agents it needs (a researcher, a writer, an outreach agent) and reports back. Each agent has its own computer and browser in a private, isolated workspace; you watch every step live in chat.

If you also pay for ChatGPT, try ChatGPT Work first: it comes with Plus at $20 a month and has its own cloud browser. If your company runs on Microsoft 365, try Copilot Cowork. If you live in Google apps, try Gemini Spark with Google AI Pro ($19.99 a month). For a hosted all-rounder, Manus starts at $20 a month.

Yes. OpenWork describes itself as "The open-source alternative to Claude Cowork". OpenClaw and Hermes Agent are MIT-licensed agents you run on your own computer or server. All three are free software; you pay for the AI model and any hosting.
Not by default. Anthropic's help center says "Cowork runs your sessions remotely in the cloud" and reaches local files or your browser through the Claude Desktop app, which must stay open for those tasks. Users on r/claude noted on September 29, 2026 that local Cowork ended on October 6. If you want an agent that runs on your own machine, look at OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, OpenWork or Genspark Claw's desktop app.
On September 16, 2026 Anthropic said "Claude Cowork and chat are merging into one Claude", rolling out to Pro and Max first. Claude's pricing page now says "Claude Cowork is now just Claude." Cowork still needs a paid plan: Pro is $20 a month, or $17 billed yearly (checked October 26, 2026).
They are close. Both need a paid plan that starts at $20 a month, both make documents, spreadsheets and decks, and both use a browser for you. ChatGPT Work uses its own cloud browser; Claude can use a built-in browser or your own Chrome. See our ChatGPT Work vs Claude Cowork comparison.
Cowork sessions cannot be shared with others. If you want your team in the same place as the agents, Dooza Crew covers your whole organization (unlimited users and agents) for $49 a month after a 7-day free trial, with AI usage included and a hard spending cap. If your team lives in Microsoft 365, Copilot Cowork works inside Outlook, Teams and Word.
A lead AI agent plus helper agents that browse the web, write files and ask you before they send or pay. 7-day free trial (card required), then $49/month with AI usage included and a hard spending cap.
Microsoft bills Copilot Cowork by usage on top of the Copilot license, and some admins say costs run high. Here are 9 alternatives with prices read on each vendor page, who each fits, one honest limit for each, and the free options.
Claude Cowork and Microsoft Copilot Cowork are both AI agents that carry out tasks for you and ask before sensitive actions. Copilot Cowork lives inside Microsoft 365 and is billed by usage on top of a Copilot license; Claude Cowork comes with paid Claude plans. Here is how they compare.
