HappyCapy turns your browser into an AI agent computer with a live desktop, 50+ skills, and 150+ models to run. Free to start, Pro is $20/month in 2026.
HappyCapy is a browser-based agent-native computer that launched on Product Hunt on February 11, 2026 and reached $1 million in annual recurring revenue within 20 days. It is free to start, with Pro at $20/month ($17/month annually) unlocking 50+ skills and 2,000 Claude Code credits, and Max at $200/month for unlimited Claude Code access. Agents run in a sandboxed live desktop powered by Claude Sonnet 4.6 and 150+ other models.
HappyCapy is an agent-native computer that runs inside the browser, built by the team behind Trickle and launched on Product Hunt on February 11, 2026. Instead of a simple chat window, it gives AI agents a live visual desktop where they can browse, code, manipulate files, and run multi-step workflows inside a secure cloud sandbox. The company raised over $10 million in seed and pre-series A funding from HongShan Seed Fund, Planetree VC, Monolith, and Baidu VC, and reached $1 million in annual recurring revenue within 20 days of launch. The core idea is a computer for your agents. Each user gets an isolated sandbox with its own filesystem, where the default agent, nicknamed Capy, runs on Claude Sonnet 4.6 and can switch between more than 150 models, including Claude Opus 4.7, Opus 4.6, and MiniMax M2.7. Users watch the agent's screen in real time, can click or type into the session to take over, and review actions before they run, which keeps long automated jobs auditable. Work is organized around a skills marketplace: composable modules for tasks like web scraping, code review, design, data processing, and customer support workflows that agents can chain together. Typical use cases include compiling competitor pricing reports, filling out forms across multiple sites, building and deploying small apps, and automating customer support escalations with follow-up emails, with finished results delivered straight to an inbox. HappyCapy is free to start, with no credit card required, and includes 10+ built-in skills plus limited Claude Code and MiniMax access on a basic sandbox. The Pro plan costs $20/month ($17/month billed annually) and unlocks all 50+ skills, 2,000 Claude Code credits, a 2-core sandbox, and Mac Bridge. The Max plan costs $200/month ($167/month billed annually) for unlimited Claude Code access, a bigger sandbox, and early-access mobile support on iOS. It runs entirely in the browser on Chrome, Edge, and Safari, with no desktop install required. Reviewers compare HappyCapy to developer-facing agent platforms like OpenClaw but note it trades some of that raw flexibility for a GUI that non-technical users can pick up quickly. Common complaints from early reviews include limited visibility into what an agent is doing during long unattended runs, occasional lag in the live browser view, and reliability hiccups on scheduled automations, issues the team has been iterating on quickly given weekly updates to the skills marketplace.
Free plan with 10+ skills, unlimited chat, limited Claude Code and MiniMax M2.5 access, no credit card required. Pro is $20/month ($17/month billed annually) with all 50+ skills, 2,000 Claude Code credits, a 2-core sandbox, and Mac Bridge. Max is $200/month ($167/month billed annually) with unlimited Claude Code access, a bigger sandbox, and early-access iOS support.
HappyCapy is an agent-native computer that runs inside your browser, built by the team behind Trickle and launched on Product Hunt on February 11, 2026. Instead of a chat window, it gives AI agents a live visual desktop where they can browse the web, write and run code, manipulate files, and complete multi-step workflows inside a secure cloud sandbox. The default agent, nicknamed Capy, runs on Claude Sonnet 4.6 and can switch between more than 150 models. The company raised over $10 million in seed and pre-series A funding from investors including HongShan Seed Fund, Planetree VC, Monolith, and Baidu VC. Within 20 days of launch it reached $1 million in annual recurring revenue and hit #1 Product of the Day on Product Hunt. It is aimed at developers, technical founders, and non-technical users who want to delegate real computer tasks to AI agents.
HappyCapy has three plans: Free, Pro, and Max. The Free plan costs $0, requires no credit card, and includes 10+ built-in skills, unlimited chat, limited Claude Code access, limited MiniMax M2.5 access, and a basic sandbox. The Pro plan costs $20/month, or $17/month if billed annually, and unlocks all 50+ skills, 2,000 Claude Code credits per month, a 2-core sandbox, and the Mac Bridge integration. The Max plan costs $200/month, or $167/month billed annually, and includes unlimited Claude Code access, a bigger sandbox, and early-access mobile support on iOS. Annual billing brings roughly a 15% discount on both paid tiers. There are no separate setup fees, though heavy Claude Code usage on Pro can run into credit limits before the billing cycle resets.
HappyCapy's standout feature is its live visual desktop, which lets you watch an AI agent operate a real browser environment in real time and step in with clicks or keystrokes when needed. Its skills marketplace offers 50+ composable modules, such as web scraping, code review, design, and data processing, that agents chain together into multi-step workflows. Every session runs in an isolated cloud sandbox with its own filesystem and visible resource usage, keeping execution contained and auditable. The platform gives access to 150+ underlying models, including Claude Opus 4.7, Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6, and MiniMax M2.7. Finished work, like scraped data or generated reports, can be delivered directly to your email inbox without any backend setup.
Yes, HappyCapy has a genuinely free plan that requires no credit card to start. The free tier includes 10+ built-in skills, unlimited chat with the agent, a basic sandbox environment, custom skill creation, and compatibility with open-source skills. It also gives limited access to Claude Code and MiniMax M2.5 for agent runs. The main limits on the free plan are the number of Claude Code credits and the smaller sandbox compared with paid tiers. Users who need the full 50+ skill library, more Claude Code credits, or a bigger sandbox need to upgrade to Pro at $20/month or Max at $200/month.
Manus is a close alternative for users who want an autonomous AI agent that plans and executes multi-step tasks, and it is worth comparing if you care more about end-to-end task completion than a visible live desktop. Devin is a better fit if your priority is a dedicated autonomous coding agent for software engineering work rather than general browser and file tasks. Genspark is another agentic AI platform to consider if you want a broader all-in-one workspace with built-in search and content generation alongside agent automation. OpenClaw is the closest developer-facing comparison, since HappyCapy positions itself as a GUI-friendly alternative to it for non-technical users. Choose HappyCapy specifically if the live visual desktop and skills marketplace matter more than a pure command-line agent experience.
HappyCapy is best for developers, technical founders, and indie hackers who want Claude Code-style agent power without setting up their own infrastructure. It also works well for non-technical knowledge workers who need to automate repetitive browser tasks, such as compiling competitor pricing reports, filling out forms across multiple sites, or running customer support workflows with follow-up emails. Agencies that need recurring web scraping or monitoring jobs can use the skills marketplace to chain together reusable automations. It is less suited to users who need a polished native mobile app today, since iOS access is still early-access and limited to the Max plan, with no Android app yet. Teams with strict compliance requirements, such as HIPAA or SOC 2 attestations, should also wait, since HappyCapy has not published formal compliance certifications as of mid-2026.
HappyCapy is primarily a browser-based product rather than an API-first platform, and the company has not published a standalone public REST API or formal Model Context Protocol server as of mid-2026. Its GitHub organization, github.com/happycapy-ai, shows the project is built on top of Claude Code, and the platform supports open-source skills, which gives technically inclined users a way to extend functionality. Within the product, agents can already connect to external services such as Google Calendar, GitHub, and deployment tools as part of their skill workflows. Developers who need programmatic, API-level access to agent automation today are better served by Claude's own API or by frameworks like Manus and Devin that expose more formal developer APIs. This is an area to watch, since MCP adoption is becoming standard across competing agent platforms in 2026.
Both HappyCapy and Manus are agent platforms that go beyond chat to execute multi-step tasks, but they differ in interface and pricing. HappyCapy's signature feature is a live visual browser desktop where you can watch and interrupt the agent in real time, while Manus leans more on autonomous end-to-end task completion with less emphasis on a visible desktop. HappyCapy starts free with no credit card and prices its Pro tier at $20/month, with a $200/month Max tier for unlimited Claude Code access. HappyCapy also offers a skills marketplace with 50+ modules that let users customize and chain automations, which gives it an edge for users who want to build repeatable workflows. Pick HappyCapy if you want transparency into what the agent is doing and a marketplace of reusable skills; pick Manus if you prefer a more hands-off agent that just completes a goal end to end.
