ShellAgent brings AI to the masses through zero-code workflows—anyone, even a complete beginner, can create interesting projects.
-
This is an all-in-one product. With just a few clicks, you gain access to all the tools needed to build top-tier AI applications.
-
We’re building a transparent and rewarding new ecosystem for every contributor. Creators deserve fair compensation.
Let’s face it—AI can be confusing! Many people don’t know how to code or understand all the jargon. That’s why we want to make AI more accessible. No coding skills or advanced degrees required! Everyone should have the chance to experiment with AI and see what it can do.
This is exactly why we created ShellAgent. Imagine a world where developers collaborate and succeed together, where everyone is fairly rewarded for their contributions. This is the idea behind our new framework.

1. Vision
AI should serve everyone, not just the tech elite. Right now, the barriers are unusually high—it feels like an exclusive VIP club. Only a few have access to the tools and knowledge required to build and use AI. AI development tools and resources are scattered across platforms, and deployment processes are complex, making it hard for beginners to get started. Moreover, turning your AI ideas into reality can be a real challenge.
Additionally, tension between open source and commercialization in AI persists. Open-source models promote collaboration and transparency, while commercialization drives innovation and economic growth. Striking the right balance is crucial. For example, Apple’s contributions to LLVM and CUPS, as well as its release of open-source software such as lib dispatch (also known as GCD) and Swift, show that both approaches can coexist. Yet a key question remains: How can we ensure AI development benefits society as a whole while creating profitable opportunities for businesses and individuals?
Monetization of AI applications is another issue. Independent developers invest significant effort into creating AI apps but often struggle to monetize them. Even when their creations are shared and reused, original creators may receive no rewards. Meanwhile, large tech companies profit because the current system tends to reward those who market and distribute apps, rather than those who actually invent the solutions.
We believe this situation is unjust. Everyone should have access to AI, so anyone—regardless of background—can create and use AI tools. It’s time to democratize AI and make it available to all.
2. ShellAgent
The tech world is nothing short of a maze! You need a dozen different tools to complete one project, which is exhausting and frustrating. Making money in tech can also be a tough challenge. That’s why we built ShellAgent!
Zero-Code Workflows
At the heart of ShellAgent is a simple drag-and-drop interface. You can select different components, connect widgets, and build your own AI application workflows. It’s incredibly simple and intuitive. Let us introduce some of the core components.
Models: Our platform supports a wide range of models from Flux to SD3, empowering your AI creations. Our library includes thousands of checkpoints, LoRAs (Low-Rank Adaptations), and powerful language models such as GPT-4 and Claude 3.5. 11labs and MyShell’s OpenVoice will make your AI applications sound just like real humans.
APIs: With ShellAgent, you can connect to nearly any API—from Instagram and X to intelligent services like Wolfram Alpha. Your app can interact with other platforms and share data, expanding its reach and functionality.
Custom Tools: Our custom tools include functional widgets designed to enhance workflow flexibility, allowing you to customize everything from layout to complex logic. With our drag-and-drop interface and rich toolkit, the possibilities are endless.
All-in-One Model Hub
Widgets are pre-built components that you can drag into your workflow to add specific functionalities. Think of them as ready-made tools you can customize to build various types of AI applications—whether for text generation, image classification, speech recognition, or more.
We’ve deployed over 300 diverse widgets on myshell.ai, including powerful pre-built models and innovative APIs. From foundational models to advanced plugins like auto-prompting, voice cloning, fine-tuning, stylized Stable Diffusion (SD), web search, GIF generators, and more.
SOTA Use Cases
SOTA stands for "state-of-the-art," a term commonly used in AI to describe the highest-performing available methods. That’s why we incorporate these cutting-edge techniques across all our work. From image generation to natural language processing, our tools deliver top-tier quality. If you see something impressive elsewhere, chances are you can build an even better version using ShellAgent. Want to see how it works? We’ll be releasing deeper guides soon—stay tuned.

With our shared library of pre-built workflows, you can easily replicate and customize existing AI applications to suit your needs. This feature lets you build upon others’ work. Plus, with our monetization features, you can even turn your creations into profitable ventures. Your advanced workflows can benefit others by sharing your expertise. In just a few clicks, transform your AI project into a revenue-generating tool.
Shared Workflows

Our shared library of pre-built workflows makes it easier and faster to copy and customize existing AI applications according to your needs. This function allows you to leverage the work of others.
Moreover, with our monetization capabilities, you can even turn your creations into profitable projects. Your advanced workflows allow others to benefit from your expertise. With just a few clicks, effortlessly transform your AI creations into income-generating assets.
Effortless Monetization
In the MyShell ecosystem, an active community of thousands of registered users and an AI app store with one-click transactions have already generated over $1.3 million in total transaction volume. ShellAgent makes it easy to monetize your AI creations. Top creators on our platform have already earned over $10,000, proving that anyone can succeed. You could be next!
Our platform enables creators at every level to earn real income. With just a few clicks, you can integrate your AI application and expose it to a broad audience. Thousands of creators have already earned substantial income on our platform—you can join them too!
No other platform does what we do. We’re building a fair and transparent creator economy where everyone benefits and sees returns. ShellAgent isn’t just a product; it’s paving the way for a whole new wave of AI applications.
3. Impact on the AI Industry
AI is evolving rapidly before our eyes—becoming smarter and more powerful. Imagine your favorite game character becoming so lifelike that it proactively asks why you’ve been ignoring it. If you don’t chat for a few days, it might even message you first. This is only the beginning of what AI can do.
That’s why we created ShellAgent—to empower everyone, including non-technical users, to create and publish their own AI applications. With an intuitive drag-and-drop interface and a rich library of functions, ShellAgent simplifies the entire app development process. We provide everything you need to succeed on a user-friendly platform—and we’re committed to doing even more.
We’re excited to announce that ShellAgent is open source! We believe AI should be accessible to everyone, which is why we’re putting power directly into the hands of the community. We invite you to contribute, improve, and co-create the future of AI with us.
Open source is the inevitable future of AI. It’s like a giant puzzle where every piece matters—everyone can add their unique contribution to the picture. ShellAgent is the glue that holds it all together, enabling anyone to easily contribute and benefit from the open-source community.
True transparency isn’t just about openness—it means giving everyone a voice. That’s why we’ve built a decentralized system where everyone has a say and an opportunity to participate. It’s technology democratized. This is precisely why we created ShellAgent! We’ve adopted a new open-source model grounded in transparency, community, and exploration.
Our mission has always been simple: make AI accessible to everyone. And that is exactly ShellAgent’s mission. The AI world has long been a closed club. It’s time to throw open the doors and let everyone in. Who knows what new masterpieces might emerge? The next Mona Lisa could be just around the corner.
The democratization of AI is underway. Every individual developer can make a meaningful impact—anyone can become a creator! What once seemed impossible is now reality. Building AI is simpler than you think. Visit the ShellAgent page and see for yourself.
