Zo vs Cofounder

Cofounder is an AI agent platform designed to autonomously run business operations. The vision: enable solo founders to build billion-dollar companies by delegating entire workflows to AI agents.

It's an ambitious bet on AI autonomy. But it represents a different philosophy from Zo.

What Cofounder Does

Cofounder integrates with your business using built-in integrations

  • Gmail, Slack, Notion: Communication and documentation

  • Linear, GitHub: Product development and code

  • Google Workspace, Airtable: Operations and data

Zo Computer supports all the same integrations – plus, you can ask Zo to integrate anything that offers an API.

How Zo Is Different

Zo gives you an intelligent cloud computer. What you do with it is up to you.

You can build autonomous agents if you want. Or you can build anything else – websites, automations, knowledge bases, custom tools. The AI helps you build and operate, but you're in control.

As one user put it: "I came in wanting the Cofounder functionality but Zo tickles my cyberpunk ethos more."
