Six products now give you a named AI worker. This is what each one does, taken from its maker's own pages as of October 4, 2026. The rows where Desk is behind are here too.
Grok Bot, Muse, dots and Autopilot
The closest to Desk: open source, on your own computer, memory in plain files
What the others do that Desk does not, yet
