Desktop Commander raises €1.1M to advance AI desktop automation

Desktop Commander has raised €1.1 million for its AI desktop automation technology.

Desktop Commander has raised €1.1 million for its AI desktop automation technology. The pre-seed funding round was led by 42CAP, with participation from BADideas Fund. The company develops an open-source server that gives AI controlled access to a user's computer. This tool allows people to manage local files and applications using plain language. Users can review, write, and deploy code without any engineering support. The technology aims to make complex automation accessible to non-technical users. It is built on Anthropic's MCP standard, which was introduced in late 2024. Desktop Commander already has thousands of daily active users. The new funding will help expand its local automation tools for a wider audience. The team is currently beta-testing a paid offering to extend the core functionality.
