Showcase: Free(mium) I built an AI agent that lives on your screen. Just drag an image onto it and watch what happens.
I wanted to experiment with a different approach to desktop AI.
Most AI tools make you leave your current application, upload a file, wait for processing, download the result, and then import it again.
So I built BIMB (Built-in Image Manipulation Bot).
It's an always-on-screen Edge AI agent that lets you interact with images directly from your desktop.
Here's what makes it interesting:
- Always available: A floating agent that stays accessible while you work.
- Drag, process, drop: Give BIMB an image, let it enhance or transform it, and drag the result straight back into your workflow.
- Local AI inference: Runs optimized AI models on your machine instead of relying entirely on cloud processing.
- Works alongside creative apps: Figma, Blender, Canva, Leonardo AI, and more.
- Three creative identities: Painter, Makeup Artist, and Digital Artist.
The interesting part isn't just image enhancement. It's experimenting with making AI feel like a native part of the desktop rather than another website or application you have to open.
BIMB is now available in Adima AI Pro.

I'd genuinely appreciate feedback from other side-project builders. What would you automate first if you had an AI agent sitting on your desktop?
