Hanzo Bot · Agents in every channel

# Your agents, in every channel

Hanzo Bot connects your AI agents to the messaging channels people already use — WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, iMessage, and Signal — plus a built-in web chat. One gateway owns the connections, routes each conversation to the right agent, streams replies back, and carries images, audio, and voice notes. Install it with a single command and run it on your own machine.

Open source (MIT). Runs as a single gateway you install on your own machine — your keys, chats, and data stay with you.

What is Hanzo Bot

## One gateway from your agents to every channel

Stop rebuilding a bot for every platform. Bot bridges the channels your users already live in to the agents you already have — through one process you run and control.

01

### Every channel

Connect once to WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, iMessage, and Signal, plus a browser chat — with Mattermost and more added by plugins. A message in any of them reaches your agent; the reply streams back to the same thread.

02

### One gateway

A single long-running process owns every channel connection and the control plane. It binds to loopback by default and requires a token for any remote access — local-first, and fully under your control.

03

### Many agents, routed

Route each account, group, or contact to its own agent with an isolated workspace and session, so one deployment can run distinct assistants — support in one place, sales in another — without crossing wires.

Capabilities

## Everything a real chat agent needs

### Media & voice

Send and receive images, audio, and documents; optional transcription turns voice notes into text your agent can act on.

### Group chats

Works in direct messages and groups. Groups stay isolated and reply on mention by default, with per-group activation rules you control.

### Automations

Trigger agents on a schedule with cron jobs, or from anything with webhooks and Gmail push — so they act without waiting to be messaged.

### Skills

Extend agents with installable skills — a growing library of command-line tools and integrations they can call to do real work.

### Companion apps

A menu-bar app on macOS, plus iOS and Android that pair as nodes and add a camera and canvas surface.

### Bring your subscription

Sign in with your existing Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT/Codex plan over OAuth — no separate per-token API bill to wire up.

## Put your agent in every channel

Install the gateway with one command and connect your first channel in minutes.
