Your agents, in every channel
Hanzo Bot connects your AI agents to the messaging channels people already use — WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, iMessage, and Signal — plus a built-in web chat. One gateway owns the connections, routes each conversation to the right agent, streams replies back, and carries images, audio, and voice notes. Install it with a single command and run it on your own machine.
Open source (MIT). Runs as a single gateway you install on your own machine — your keys, chats, and data stay with you.
What is Hanzo Bot
One gateway from your agents to every channel
Stop rebuilding a bot for every platform. Bot bridges the channels your users already live in to the agents you already have — through one process you run and control.
Every channel
Connect once to WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, iMessage, and Signal, plus a browser chat — with Mattermost and more added by plugins. A message in any of them reaches your agent; the reply streams back to the same thread.
One gateway
A single long-running process owns every channel connection and the control plane. It binds to loopback by default and requires a token for any remote access — local-first, and fully under your control.
Many agents, routed
Route each account, group, or contact to its own agent with an isolated workspace and session, so one deployment can run distinct assistants — support in one place, sales in another — without crossing wires.
Capabilities
Everything a real chat agent needs
Media & voice
Send and receive images, audio, and documents; optional transcription turns voice notes into text your agent can act on.
Group chats
Works in direct messages and groups. Groups stay isolated and reply on mention by default, with per-group activation rules you control.
Automations
Trigger agents on a schedule with cron jobs, or from anything with webhooks and Gmail push — so they act without waiting to be messaged.
Skills
Extend agents with installable skills — a growing library of command-line tools and integrations they can call to do real work.
Companion apps
A menu-bar app on macOS, plus iOS and Android that pair as nodes and add a camera and canvas surface.
Bring your subscription
Sign in with your existing Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT/Codex plan over OAuth — no separate per-token API bill to wire up.
