# Welcome to Comis

> Open-source AI agent fleet that lives in your messaging apps

Comis *(Latin: friendly, courteous)* is an open-source platform that puts AI agents directly inside the messaging apps you already use -- Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, IRC, LINE, and Email. Instead of switching to yet another tool, your AI assistants live right where your conversations happen, ready to help at any moment.

Most AI tools are chatbots trapped in a browser tab. Comis is different. It is a full operations center that lets you run a fleet of specialized agents, each with their own memory, tools, and personality. They work around the clock, even while you sleep.

## Who is Comis for?

* **Community managers** running Discord or Telegram groups who need an AI moderator,
  FAQ bot, or engagement assistant that actually remembers past conversations.
* **Small business owners** who want AI-powered customer support inside WhatsApp
  or Slack without hiring a developer or learning to code.
* **Developers** building AI-powered automation, custom tools, or multi-agent
  workflows with full control over the source code.
* **Teams** that need multiple specialized AI agents working together -- one for
  research, one for writing, one for scheduling -- all coordinated through a
  single platform.

## Quick example

Install Comis globally, run the setup wizard, and start the daemon -- three commands is all it takes:

```bash theme={null}
npm install -g comisai
comis init
comis daemon start
```

That's it -- your first agent is running. Open `http://localhost:4766` in your
browser to start chatting. See the full [Quickstart](/get-started/quickstart)
