Paperclip: Open Source Human Control Plane for AI Labor — Dotta Bippa
Apr 15, 2026 · 24:34
Dotta Bippa introduces Paperclip, an open-source human control plane for AI labor that lets you manage an org chart of agents to run a zero-human company. The tool enables you to hire employees, set goals, automate jobs, and bring your own agent (e.g., Gemini, Claude, Codex) with skills and instructions. Paperclip supports reliable workflows like QA reviews and approvers, and routines for recurring tasks such as summarizing PRs or writing changelogs. Dotta demonstrates creating a Remotion video celebrating Paperclip's 40,000 GitHub stars (now 50,000) by instructing the CEO agent to hire a video writer and apply brand guidelines—something that would have taken a week becomes an afterthought. Paperclip is not just for coding; it handles marketing, sales, and finance. Upcoming features include CEO chat, maximizer mode, multi-user support, cloud deployments, and a desktop app, all aimed at giving humans control over AI labor.
