Get started

We recommend using the OpenResearch desktop app. Download it for your platform:

Prefer the standalone CLI? Install on macOS or Linux

curl -LsSf https://openresearch.sh/install.sh | sh
orx up

orx up opens the local dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:4791.

On a managed Mac, device-management policies may block the CLI installed by install.sh because it is not yet signed. Use the signed and notarized desktop app instead. You can also install orx for your terminal from the app's Settings → Updates → Install the orx command.

Create an account at openresearch.sh to receive email updates and use managed OpenResearch compute.

How it works

Use your favorite coding agent. OpenResearch works natively with https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Claude Code, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Codex, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ OpenCode, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Cursor, and https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Google Antigravity. You can also use a local model with OpenCode through https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ LM Studio, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ oMLX, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Ollama, or a custom endpoint.

Ground research hypotheses in the latest literature. OpenResearch integrates with https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ alphaXiv, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ bioRxiv, and https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ PubMed so agents can find relevant papers, develop informed hypotheses, and connect their experiments to existing research.

Choose your compute. Run experiments locally or use SSH, Slurm, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Kubernetes, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Modal, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Tinker, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Ray, https://github.com/alphaXiv/OpenResearch/blob/HEAD/ Hugging Face Jobs, and managed OpenResearch compute.

Give agents a memory of every experiment. OpenResearch records every experiment in a local SQL database and keeps its logs, code, and artifacts on your machine so that agents can learn from past results and decide what to try next. The desktop app makes it easy to see what your agents have done and inspect the evidence behind each result.

Keep and own your research. Run entirely locally. We don't collect your code or agent traces. Your projects, conversations, experiments, logs, and artifacts stay on your machine, under your control.

Usage analytics

Official release builds send opt-out, coarse usage events tied to a random installation ID. They do not include code, prompts, file contents or paths, repository names, tokens, emails, or project and experiment identifiers.

You can turn usage analytics off in the desktop app's Settings or with orx telemetry off.
