# Glasswarp

> The transport layer between your agent and Windows computers — eyes, hands, and a safe session. You bring the brain. For automators already doing no-API desktop work.

# Give your agent eyes and hands on Windows

Glasswarp is the **transport layer between your agent and Windows computers**.
It gives any model real-time vision and native input on Windows machines you
or your clients already own — including no-API EHR, ERP, insurance AMS, and
other licensed desktops.

**You bring the brain** — the model, prompts, and task logic. Built for
automation developers and small shops already doing that work; vertical AI
teams building on the client's PC are in scope.

<Note>
  Pair a Windows PC once. Your agent sees the screen and controls keyboard and
  mouse through one API — on the real desktop and apps your users run. No rented
  cloud PC required.

  <Card title="Setup for Agents" icon="robot" href="/setup-for-agents">
    Paste one prompt into your coding agent and let it wire Glasswarp into your
    project.

## The loop

Every integration is the same shape: **see the screen, decide, act, repeat.**
Glasswarp owns the see-and-act transport; your code owns the decide.

## How Glasswarp differs

Typical computer-use sandboxes approximate a desktop (often Linux or a soft
framebuffer). Glasswarp captures a **real Windows** machine with native input —
your apps, your files, your GPU. Agent `observe` / screenshots use **DXGI Desktop
Duplication by default (GDI fallback)** and are encoded as CPU JPEG; the GPU
NVENC pipeline is used for **Live View** (the human watch stream), not the agent
capture path. Details live in [Eyes and hands](/concepts/eyes-and-hands) and the
FAQ on the marketing site.
