Your computer, from anywhere. Just ask.
Ask ChatGPT or Claude, even on your phone, and the computer at home or at work sorts files, totals Excel sheets and reads PDFs for you.
One computer free · 20,000 tool calls a month · No card
Up to 3 computers free for your first month. After that, one stays free.
Works on Mac, Windows (beta) and Linux.
You need ChatGPT, Claude or another AI app that lets you add connectors. Its subscription is separate.
On your phone now? Create your account here, then open the dashboard on your computer to install and connect your AI app.
What sets BCD apart
No app to keep open
A small background agent keeps the computer connected. No desktop app or chat window has to stay open, so a desk PC, a home server or a Linux box in a closet works the same way.
Any AI app, not one company’s
Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and other apps that take a connector use the same computer, with the same permissions.
Runs on a schedule
Save a task once and it runs at the time you choose, such as every weekday at 8:00, even with no chat open. You get an email if a run fails.
Files to and from your phone
Ask for a file and get a download link on your phone. Ask for a link, and photos you pick on your phone are saved into a folder on the computer.
Schedules and file links come to ChatGPT once OpenAI approves them.

Get started in three steps
BCD gives ChatGPT, Claude and Codex access to your computer, so you stop copying things back and forth. The AI reads your files, runs the commands, sees the results and keeps going. It works from your phone too, on any computer you connect.
Create a free account. The first month includes Personal for up to 3 computers.
Install BCD on your computer with one command in Terminal (PowerShell on Windows), then approve the computer in your browser.
Add BCD to your AI app: in ChatGPT, open BCD in its plugin directory and install it; in Claude, add it as a custom connector. Then ask it to work on your computer.
Secure remote computer control for AI
Read-only by default. Write, process, UI, and clipboard access require explicit per-device approval.
Durable sessions survive MCP reconnects. Device actions are isolated per account. Product telemetry excludes file contents, file paths, commands, output, clipboard contents, and screenshots.
Also in BCD
Build and ship iOS apps from your phone
Ask the AI on your phone to build, test and upload your app to TestFlight on your Mac. Errors come back summarized, ready to fix.

Share your computers with your team
