QwenPaw (formerly CoPaw, rebranded April 2026) is an open-source personal AI assistant built by the AgentScope team at Alibaba. You deploy it locally or on a cloud VM, connect it to messaging apps like Telegram, Discord, WeChat, DingTalk, or Feishu, and interact with a persistent, memory-evolving agent that learns your preferences and proactively surfaces relevant information. Version 1.1.4, released April 24, brings a refactored memory and context architecture, built-in DeepSeek V4 models, ACP Server exposure for multi-agent communication, and a console plugin system. For LLM backends it supports cloud APIs (Qianwen, DeepSeek, OpenAI) and fully offline local inference via Ollama, LM Studio, or llama.cpp — meaning you can run it with zero API costs on your own hardware. The built-in skill library covers daily news digests, video summarization, email triage, PDF/Office processing, and calendar management. The multi-agent capability — where you can spin up specialized agents that collaborate — puts it in interesting territory between a personal assistant and a lightweight team-of-agents platform. Desktop apps for Windows and macOS are in beta.

W&B provides experiment tracking, hyperparameter optimization, model versioning, and dataset management. The standard for ML experiment tracking.
Reviewer scorecard
“The Ollama backend support is the key feature — this is the first personal assistant I've seen where you can genuinely go fully offline and fully free. The ACP server in v1.1.4 opens it up for multi-agent coordination that's actually useful for automating dev workflows.”
“The best experiment tracking tool. Logging metrics, comparing runs, and the artifact system are production-grade.”
“The skill library looks impressive on paper but most of the demos are China-centric platforms (Xiaohongshu, Zhihu, DingTalk). International users will find meaningful gaps and will need to build their own skills. The documentation is also still primarily in Chinese despite multilingual README efforts.”
“For ML teams, W&B is as essential as Git is for software. Experiment reproducibility is non-negotiable.”
“The future of personal AI is self-hosted, memory-persistent, and connected to where you actually communicate. QwenPaw's architecture — LLM backend agnostic, multi-platform, multi-agent — is the right shape for that future. The Alibaba team building this in the open is a meaningful contribution.”
“As AI development becomes more systematic, experiment tracking becomes foundational infrastructure. W&B leads here.”
“The 'describe your goal before sleep, wake up to a prototype' workflow is the creator feature I didn't know I needed. Video pipeline automation and newsletter digests pushed to Telegram cover 80% of my daily content research. This one's getting installed.”
