Kimi’s OK Computer: AI Agent That Builds Websites & Apps

Moonshot AI has launched OK Computer, a revolutionary agent mode for its Kimi K2 AI model that represents a significant leap in artificial intelligence capabilities. Announced on September 24, 2025, and now in grayscale testing, OK Computer embodies the “model as Agent” philosophy, granting the AI its own virtual computer to execute complex, multi-step tasks with minimal user input.

What is OK Computer?

OK Computer is Kimi’s agent mode that functions as “Your AI product & engineering team, all in one.” Unlike traditional AI chatbots that simply respond to queries, OK Computer operates as an autonomous agent with access to its own virtual computing environment.

When using OK Computer, users only need to give simple instructions, and Kimi can independently operate its virtual computer to perform complex tasks such as website development, data analysis, image and video generation, and high-quality PPT creation.

Technical Foundation: Kimi K2 Model

OK Computer is powered by the Kimi K2 model, which uses a MoE (Mixture-of-Experts) architecture, with a total parameter count of 1T and an activated parameter count of 32B. In benchmark tests across three key dimensions—autonomous programming, tool calling, and mathematical reasoning—Kimi K2 has demonstrated outstanding performance, especially in Agentic Coding.

The model was originally released on July 11, 2025, and has since gained attention for its powerful coding capabilities and general agent task processing abilities.

Core Capabilities

Autonomous Website Development

OK Computer can create multi-page sites with mobile-first designs, front-end, back-end, and even hosting—delivered as live, editable outputs. Users have successfully built fully functional websites by simply describing their requirements in natural language.

Massive Data Processing

The system can process up to 1 million rows of data and transform them into interactive dashboards, making it valuable for data analysts and businesses handling large datasets.

Creative Content Generation

OK Computer can handle image and video generation, and high-quality PPT creation, offering creative professionals a comprehensive suite of tools within a single interface.

Technical Operations

It natively supports file systems, browsers, and terminal operations, giving it unprecedented access to computing resources compared to traditional AI assistants.

The “Computer with Legs” Concept

The name is clever — OK Computer, both a nod to Radiohead and a hint that this is a “computer with legs.” This metaphor captures the essence of what makes OK Computer unique: it’s not just processing information but actively operating computing systems to accomplish tasks.

This end-to-end training enhances tool invocation, making OK Computer feel like a “computer with legs”—proactive and capable of self-correction.

Access and Availability

Currently, OK Computer is in beta testing with limited access. Users who have previously tipped Kimi will receive early access to this new feature. Free users only get 3 trial attempts, suggesting a usage-based pricing model will be implemented.

The service is available internationally through kimi.com, while mainland China users are participating in the grayscale testing phase.

Real-World Performance

Early testers have reported impressive results. Some have used it to build fully functional constellation websites. Others tested it with large data files, expecting failure, but it performed flawlessly.

However, the system isn’t without limitations. Skeptics point to limitations, like opaque outputs or dependency on clear prompts, calling it “useless” for edge cases without human oversight.

Competitive Positioning

Kimi’s OK Computer arrives amid a surge in agentic AI, challenging incumbents like OpenAI’s GPT agents or Anthropic’s Claude tools by emphasizing “true agency.” The key differentiator is the virtual computer environment that allows for actual computing operations rather than just text generation.

OK Computer introduces an AI agent mode designed to function as an entire product and engineering team. It can generate multi-page websites, mobile-first designs, interactive dashboards from large datasets, and operate natively on file systems, browsers, and terminals.

Technical Architecture

The system represents a significant advancement in AI agent capabilities through several key innovations:

End-to-End Training: OK Computer continues the ‘model as Agent’ concept by training the Kimi K2 model end-to-end, enhancing its capabilities in agent and tool calling.

Virtual Environment: Unlike other AI systems that rely on external tools, OK Computer operates within its own virtual computing environment, providing greater autonomy and capability.

Multi-Modal Operations: The system handles text, images, data, and code generation within a unified framework.

Industry Impact

This launch underscores Moonshot AI’s ambition to dominate the agentic AI space, especially in coding and workflow automation. The introduction of OK Computer signals a shift from AI as a conversational tool to AI as an autonomous computing agent.

Looking ahead, this could spark a wave of “agent-with-compute” tools, pressuring rivals to amp up autonomy.

OK Computer represents a significant step toward truly autonomous AI agents that can operate computing systems independently, potentially transforming how we approach software development, data analysis, and creative work. While still in testing phases, its capabilities suggest a future where AI agents become genuine partners in complex technical tasks rather than simple question-answering tools.
