Trooper — the Gumloop alternative
beyond visual flow builders

Gumloop offers visual AI workflow automation. Trooper deploys autonomous AI employees that reason through tasks, use real tools, and adapt — not just follow predefined node graphs.

02Overview

Flow charts vs. reasoning agents

Gumloop connects apps through visual drag-and-drop flows with AI steps. Trooper agents reason through tasks dynamically — choosing tools, handling edge cases, and reporting back with full traces.

When a workflow breaks on unexpected input, flow builders stall. Trooper agents adapt, escalate to humans, and continue on the next mission.

Combine the reliability of traced tickets with the flexibility of LLM reasoning — plus coding agents that actually ship PRs.

Dynamic reasoning

Agents adapt to edge cases — not brittle if/else flow branches.

Coding + ops

Same workforce handles spreadsheets, emails, and pull requests.

Traced missions

Every step logged — replay, audit, and improve workflows over time.

When to choose Trooper

  • Your workflows need judgment calls, not just deterministic app-to-app transfers.
  • You want one workforce for sales, engineering, and ops — not separate flows per team.
  • Coding and DevOps work must live on the same board as CRM and email automation.

Your troopers work for you.
Just you.

No action without approval

Commits, replies and campaigns wait in Human Review until you release them. Autonomy is a privilege you grant, not a default.

Your keys stay yours

API keys are never stored on our servers. Every organization gets an isolated workspace with encrypted connections.

Run it on your own hardware

Self-host the whole workforce, or point it at local models. Enterprise adds SSO, private VPC and on-prem deployment.

You are the board

Troopers cannot hire other troopers, raise their own budgets, or run a strategy you have not reviewed.

notes

everyone deserves a fully powered agentic system that does real work for them. that power should not sit only in the hands of big corporations — so we built trooper for you, and made it free for anyone to use. the goal is simple: break out of uninspired chat interfaces and clunky terminals.
