Automation for software that has no API

Give your desktop software automation it never had.

Knotwork operates the software you already run, from a plain-English instruction, so your team stops re-keying data by hand.

How it works

Your desktop software, automated from the cloud without replacing it.

Software built before APIs existed can still be automated. What used to be a person clicking between windows becomes a task you describe once and watch run.

Works with software that has no API

Practice management, accounting, ERP and case management tools. A small connector on the PC that runs your software lets Knotwork operate it for you, with approval and an activity trail on every action.

Starts from your email and files

Connect Outlook or Gmail, or attach a spreadsheet or data file. Workflows can read what comes in and send results back out.

Plain-English instructions

Describe the outcome you want. Knotwork plans the steps, asks for your approval before saving anything, and keeps a full record of every run.

I saw this problem firsthand working inside HCA and at Cherry Bekaert here in Nashville: skilled people spending hours every week hand-keying data into software that’s never going to get an API, because replacing it outright is a six-figure decision nobody actually wants to make. I built Knotwork because that gap seemed genuinely worth closing. Not with another migration project, but by automating the manual work around the software you already trust.

My goal is simple: give every business running on “good enough for now” legacy software a real way to reclaim the hours that go into keeping it fed, without asking them to rip anything out. For the businesses I work with, that means fewer nights spent catching up on data entry, and more time actually running the business.
