Open-source personal AI assistant that runs on your own machine and works from chat apps
Self-hosted by design, so memories, skills, models, and data never leave infrastructure you control.
Operate the assistant from WhatsApp, Telegram, or another client you already use instead of a new dashboard.
The agent performs actions such as organizing inboxes, sending email, managing calendars, and handling check-ins.
Extend capabilities with skills and plugins and keep context that carries across conversations.
A general-purpose AI agent that executes tasks, not just answers them
Give the agent a goal and it plans the steps, chooses tools, and works through the task in a cloud environment without constant supervision.
Produces finished artifacts such as slide decks, functional websites, small games, and formatted documents rather than raw text.
Runs broad, multi-source investigations and compiles the findings into a structured report.
Generates images, video, and music as part of a larger task or as standalone outputs.
