Work Orchestra is a desktop workspace that drives your real Office apps, runs an AI agent on your actual files, and ties it all together with a wiki, notes, memory, and a growing plugin ecosystem.
The actual interface — activity bar, workspaces, live Office, and an AI agent that runs on your project. No tab switching, no copy-paste between apps.
A spreadsheet here, an email thread there, twenty browser tabs, an AI chat in another window, files buried on disk. Every switch is a context rebuild.
Work Orchestra unifies your tools without replacing them. Real Office, real inbox, real browser — sitting in one window, anchored to a project that survives the session.
Three nested layers. A domain is your top-level context — Work, Personal, Business — each anchored to its own file system. Inside a domain are views that organize related workspaces by activity.
Each domain points at its own folder — Dropbox for Work, OneDrive for Business, a local folder for Personal. All workspaces, settings, and tools inside a domain sync through that one root.
A view groups related workspaces and decides which component types and tools are available. Spin one up per kind of work you do.
A workspace is the actual project. Linked files, AI agents, memory, notes, todos, session history — all in one JSON file you can leave and resume.
The dashboard inside a domain — globals strip on top, the active view's workspaces below. Switch domains to swap the whole context.
Every tool is a self-contained plugin — disable, configure, or replace any of them. The lineup below is what's in the box right now. The plugin SDK is open, so the long tail can be anything.
A first-class wiki for each domain. Cross-link pages, embed components, search across everything. The reference layer your team keeps coming back to.
Drives Excel running on your machine. Cells, ranges, formulas, formatting, sheets, VBA, macros.
Drives Word via COM. Generate, edit, replace, style, table, image, bookmark, PDF export.
Search, read, compose, reply with a local cache. Multi-account support. Drives Gmail via API.
Google Calendar — list, create, update, delete events across all your calendars.
Real browser inside the workspace. Tabs, bookmarks, dev tools — research lives next to the work.
Navigate the filesystem with favorites, drag-drop, and quick-open into the workspace.
Connect shared folders. Create and edit markdown notes with split-screen preview.
Workspace-scoped todo lists on the shared filesystem. Priorities, due dates, assignees.
Pin the final versions, deliverables, and key documents that matter for an activity.
One markdown file per workspace, auto-captured from your AI sessions. Always loaded into the agent's context.
Reusable prompt and step templates. Define a workflow once, run it on any workspace.
Finance, analysis, communication, workflow, writing. Browse and install templates from the library.
Build distribution lists, attach files, materialize a script, create or send Outlook drafts in batch.
Surface Gmail messages relevant to a workspace. Filter by date, keywords, sender, or let AI find them.
Fetch, append, and update cells. Cached for fast reads. Public-CSV fallback when unauthenticated.
Compare two Word documents. Produces a full tracked-changes redline you can save as docx or PDF.
Walk a directory and classify files by type and content. Quick-add results into a workspace.
Shared-folder CRM. Accounts, contacts, opportunities — one JSON file on the file server.
Send documents for signature. Envelope creation, status tracking, embedded signing.
Pull, manage, and run local models. Useful when data needs to stay on the machine.
Point it at a folder, a file, or a rough task. That's the setup.
Files, AI, Office, mail, browser, and notes side by side in one window.
Capture patterns as Key Files, Workflows, and Memory as they repeat.
