Desktop
Two desktop apps — one that runs agents on your own machine against local or remote models, one that puts Hanzo a keystroke away in your menubar — plus the Claude Desktop connector.
Desktop apps
Two apps, two jobs. Hanzo Agents runs on your machine and builds agents that can use models running locally or in the cloud. Hanzo Menubar is the one-keystroke assistant. They are separate downloads and you can run both.
Every download below points at each project's latest release, so the link does not go stale between versions; the release page names the file for your platform.
Hanzo Agents
Build agents that work together, handle payments, and automate workflows — against models running on your own machine or in the cloud. No code required. Free and open source.
Runs on macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows and Linux. Which installers a given release carries varies, so take the newest one that names your platform.
