Berd extends Block's push into AI tools by adding a character-based interface for managing multiple agents, a step beyond its earlier Goose agent.
Reporting from 1 source: GIGAZINE.
Block, the company led by Jack Dorsey, has released Berd, an AI agent app that lets users manage multiple AI agents as characters and assign tasks to each one. The app includes task lists, notes, and a model switcher, and is being developed as an open-source project on GitHub.
Berd is a desktop app that runs multiple AI agents at once, each given a character appearance so users can tell them apart while assigning tasks. The interface shows task lists and notes alongside the characters, and users can switch models per agent.
The project is open source, with the code hosted on GitHub under Block's account. The app's tagline is "Less chatting, more building."
