MiosbotFAQ
Questions, answered.
Everything people ask about Miosbot: the profiles, the apps, the gateway, safety, plans and getting started. For step-by-step help, see the docs.
The basics
What is Miosbot?
An open AI agent with a custom gateway for any provider. It is one AI agent that works for you on Mac, iPhone, Apple Watch and the web, with two profiles: Miosbot Code for builds and Miosbot Auto for automotive dealerships. You can add your own agents too.
When can I get it?
Preorders are open now. Miosbot downloads on Black Friday, Friday, November 27, 2026. Preorder Miosbot.
Who is it for?
Business owners and their teams who want work done, not just answered: follow-ups, scheduling, research, reports, setup and builds. Miosbot Auto is made for automotive dealerships.
Can I use it today?
You can preorder it today. Miosbot downloads on November 27, 2026, for Mac, iPhone, Apple Watch and the web.
What does “run until complete” mean?
Miosbot keeps working, turn after turn, until the job is done or a step truly needs you, instead of stopping after each reply.
The profiles
What does Miosbot do?
Miosbot is your assistant: plans, research, drafts and follow-ups, all from one main chat. It also handles setup, checks its own health and repairs what breaks.
What does Miosbot Auto do?
Miosbot Auto is the automotive profile, built for dealerships: Deals & Funding, Vehicles, Investigate and the work around them. It does not approve financing.
What does Miosbot Code do?
Miosbot Code is the coding profile: it takes a coding job from an issue or a chat message, runs the tests and opens a draft pull request. It never merges on its own.
Can I make my own agent?
Yes. Give it a name, a role, an avatar, a mode, skills, a model route and spending caps.
How do the profiles work together?
A profile hands work to another with a brief. You see each hand-off go from Sent to Accepted to Done, and you can retry one that misses.
Apps and devices
Which Macs are supported?
Apple silicon Macs. Requirements for the launch build are posted on the Download page on November 27.
Is there an iPhone or Apple Watch app?
Yes. Miosbot for iPhone and Apple Watch downloads on November 27, 2026, with the Mac app and the web. See the apps.
Is there a Windows or Android app?
Miosbot reaches Android, and the web version works in the browser on any computer, including Windows.
Is Miosbot in Chrome or Safari?
Miosbot for Chrome and Safari: coming at launch. The extensions are planned for November 27 and are not in the stores yet.
How do I install the Mac app?
Miosbot for Mac downloads on November 27, 2026. Install steps are posted on the Download page on launch day.
How do I check the download?
The Download page lists the file’s SHA256. Run shasum -a 256 on the file in Terminal and compare.
Models and the gateway
Which AI models does it use?
The ones you connect. The gateway works with hosted model providers, gateways and routers, local models and media services. See the gateway and the provider directory.
Do I need my own API key?
You need a route: a provider account, an API key, or a local model. Your workspace may provide routes for you.
Can each profile use a different model?
Yes. Each profile, and each agent you add, has its own route.
Is there a partnership with any AI provider?
No. Provider names identify third-party services only.
Can I run models locally?
Yes. Point a profile’s route at a model on your Mac or your own server.
Safety and control
Does Miosbot keep asking for permission?
No. In Auto, Miosbot asks only before it spends money or sends something to a client. Bypass and Run until complete never stop to ask. A short list of hard limits applies in every mode.
What if I send a message while Miosbot is working?
It waits its turn. Miosbot finishes the step it’s on, then reads your message. Only Stop cancels a run.
Can Miosbot spend money?
Not on its own. Money actions need explicit approval.
Can I undo what Miosbot did?
Deleted files go to the Trash, Miosbot snapshots before repairs, and every step is logged. See Safety and control.
Should I paste passwords into a chat?
No. When a task needs one, Miosbot asks through a protected form.
