Get your time back. AI does the work.

Write tasks on a board. An AI agent works through them, project by project, in isolated containers, streaming its output live back to your board. Use your own Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Grok API key, or a model running on your own hardware.

Free desktop app. Your own API key, or your own hardware.

The board on a phone: the Planning column with one task card, under the column tabs Planning, To Do, In Progress and Done

Works from your phone

Sign in on your phone and the same board is there. Read what the agent did, answer its question, move a card to To Do, and your desktop runs it.

Columns become pages you swipe between. Cloud sync is a paid plan with a free 30-day trial, and the desktop app stays free.

What works from a browser or phone

How it works

Create a project

Point it at a repository or start fresh. The project gets its own container with the tools it needs.

Write tasks

Describe what you want done, in plain language, as cards on a Kanban board.

The agent gets to work

It picks up the queue, executes each task, streams the output live, and asks you when it needs a decision.

Credentials encrypted with AES-256-GCM under a key the cloud never stores. Containers sandboxed with gVisor on Linux where it is installed. Security Docker, gVisor and the firewall rule installed from inside the app, one prompt. What it sets up for you

Why Borago Board

Local-first

Your board lives in a local database on your machine. No account required. Without cloud sync the app sends your work only to the AI provider you chose and your git remote.

Your own API key

Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Grok, on your own API key. Usage is billed to you by your provider directly. No middleman, no markup. Every provider

Or your own hardware

Run tasks on a local model instead - Ollama, vLLM or LM Studio, on this machine or another one on your network. No API key, nothing sent to a provider, no cost per task. Using a local AI model

Isolated containers

Each project gets its own Docker container. The agent works inside it, so your host system, beyond the project folder you point it at, stays out of reach. Containers keep running after you quit the app, until you stop them. How it is secured

Cloud, when you want it

Keep the board on your desk, or sync it to the cloud and run your projects from a browser or phone - start a container, open a terminal, plan the next task. The work still happens on your own machine. Off by default. What works from a browser or phone
