# Quick Start

> Get Myrm running in under 2 minutes.

# Quick Start

Choose your preferred deployment method to get started.

<Note>
  **Switching from another agent?** Read the [Competitor Comparison](/getting-started/competitor-comparison) guide first — it maps Hermes, OpenClaw, and others to Myrm in one place. Myrm runs as **SaaS**, **self-hosted WebUI**, or **desktop** — pick one path below; your skills and memory can follow via the GUI migration wizard (desktop / local WebUI).
</Note>

## SaaS Cloud (Fastest)

No installation needed. Visit [app.myrmagent.ai](https://app.myrmagent.ai/auth/login) and create an account.

## Local Deployment (Docker)

<Steps>
  <Step title="Clone the repository">
    ```bash theme={null}
    git clone https://github.com/Pursue-LLL/myrm-agent.git
    cd myrm
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start services">
    ```bash theme={null}
    docker compose up -d
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Access the UI">
    Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Desktop App (Tauri)

Download the latest release for your platform from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/Pursue-LLL/myrm-agent/releases).

| Platform              | Download    |
| --------------------- | ----------- |
| macOS (Apple Silicon) | `.dmg`      |
| macOS (Intel)         | `.dmg`      |
| Windows               | `.msi`      |
| Linux                 | `.AppImage` |

## What's Next?

After setup, you can:

1. **Configure your first agent** — Choose a model and set up tools
2. **Start a conversation** — Describe your task and let the agent work
3. **Explore memory** — See how the agent learns across sessions

<Tip>
  **Automatic Level-Up**: Myrm tracks your progress through AI capability levels (L1–L5). As you complete milestones — first chat, first tool use, first approval — you'll automatically level up and unlock more advanced features. No manual steps needed.
