Automaker is an autonomous AI development studio designed to transform how software is built by allowing developers to describe features, then watching AI agents implement code, tests, commits, and more with minimal manual typing. Instead of writing every line of code by hand, users add feature cards to a Kanban board with natural language descriptions, and AI agents powered by the Claude Agent SDK handle multi-step tasks such as planning, generating code, running tests, and committing to an isolated git worktree. The core idea is to shift developers’ focus from mechanical coding to high-level architectural and product decisions while retaining control through review and approval of generated changes. Built with tools like React, Vite, Electron, and Express, Automaker offers both web and desktop workflows with real-time streaming of agent activity and visibility into progress.
