About Simular

Building machine autonomy to unleash human potential.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably like us – a knowledge worker who spends well over 1,500 hours a year just clicking, typing and moving on the computer.

We're a research-driven company chasing one goal: full machine autonomy. Every product we ship moves us closer to a world where AI takes over digital labor, freeing people to develop and flourish.

Our journey

From a live demo to human-level agents.

  8. · Research

    gui-agents v0.1.0 released

    Agent S opens up as a pip library for the first time — anyone can run it on their own machine.

  9. · Research

    Agent S paper and framework released

    The first open agentic framework that uses a computer like a human: experience-augmented hierarchical planning + retrieval-based memory + an Agent-Computer Interface.

  10. 2023
  11. · Live demo

    Our agent schedules a meeting live on stage

    In front of a packed room in San Francisco, Simular’s agent called a business and booked a meeting — end to end, on its own.

  12. · Company

    Simular founded

    Building accessible general intelligence to liberate human labor.

Our approach

Build autonomous systems in real life and bring more freedom to people

Real life

Autonomy needs a closed feedback loop

Continual learning in real life is where actions produce consequences that feed back in.

Full-stack

Autonomy means optimally free

We build not only the user-facing agent interface, but also the virtual machine that the agent runs on to free humans from devices.

Neurosymbolic

Autonomy needs accountability

Our neurosymbolic framework combines the exploratory power of LLMs with the deterministic reliability of code, balancing capability and reliability.

Team

We’re a small group of scientists and engineers from DeepMind, Google, and top AI labs. We’ve worked on cutting-edge reinforcement learning systems, compiler design, and real-world robotics — and now we’re applying that experience to build agents that actually work.
