I built VeryBot because I was tired of juggling ChatGPT + Trello + cron jobs + Slack bots as separate tools. I wanted one self-hosted assistant that could actually do work, not just answer questions.
What it does:
- Chat with an AI assistant that creates tasks, teams, and schedules from conversation
- Kanban board the assistant can populate and update
- Scheduled automation (recurring reminders, follow-ups) without external cron
- Playbooks: save workflows (onboarding, incident triage, release checklists) and rerun them
- Connect Telegram, Discord, Slack, or WhatsApp as channels
- Mobile-friendly UI, same interface from desktop or phone
All data stays local under ~/.verybot. MIT licensed. Node.js >=22.
npm install -g verybot && verybot
Open http://localhost:28789, pick a model provider in Settings > Agent, and try: "Set up a team and starter tasks for launch planning."Happy to answer questions and hear what's missing.
