The product and website of Adept AI Labs — the first public demo of what became the “computer use” paradigm.

In September 2022, Adept announced ACT-1 (Action Transformer): a model trained to use software tools from high-level natural language requests. A single sentence could complete tasks that would otherwise require 10+ clicks in Salesforce; ACT-1 could work in-depth in spreadsheets, compose multiple tools across applications, look up information online when needed, and learn from one piece of human feedback. “Highly coachable,” and — before Anthropic coined the term — the first public demonstration of Computer Use as a model capability.
