A private AI that builds the apps you ask for.
You describe something small you wish you had. It builds it on a private virtual computer used only by you, and it's designed to save a copy before it changes anything. Below, you can watch one being made.
Building a habit tracker, start to finish
A real recording of SophosAI building a habit tracker from one sentence: the chat, the saved copy, the app asking first, and undo.
- You ask. "Build me a habit tracker…", in plain words. No code, no settings.
- A copy is saved before anything changes, designed to happen outside the AI's reach.
- It builds in its own room. You can watch what it runs. Each app is designed to be walled off from your account, your chats and your other apps.
- You say yes. The app asks before it may keep anything: "Habit Tracker wants to use its own storage. Allow?"
- It's ready. Two habits added, one ticked off, saved.
- Undo. One tap back to the copy from before you asked. Undo changes to your workspace is a button you press, not something the AI controls.
In development These are rules the computer is designed to enforce. We're still building them.
Other things people might ask for
a workout log that remembers your weights and charts your progress counters for the big days, like days sober or the trip in March a list of every subscription and what they cost together flashcards that quiz you more on the ones you miss your recipes, this week's dinners and the grocery list in one place "what is this?" for a plant or an old coin, from a photo meeting notes turned into a summary and a to-do list step-by-step help with your kid's maths homework
Examples, not a menu. Anything that uses AI on a photo gives a best guess, not a fact.
Each workspace is designed to run on its own private virtual computer, used only by you and never shared with other customers.
Your chats, and anything you or your apps ask the AI about, go to your own AI account's provider. Your AI can also use the web. Workspaces have a usage budget, never "unlimited".
Who's building this
Kaleb Hogeland, founder. U.S. Navy veteran.
I'm a Navy veteran with a background spanning software systems engineering at Space and Naval Warfare, business ownership, and field sales. In the Navy and at Space and Naval Warfare, every change was documented and controlled. That's why every change here is designed to start with a saved copy.
I care more about what actually works than about hype.
Plans
Two ways to have your own private AI. Here's what each one includes.
| Feature | Private agent | Agent + Workspace |
|---|---|---|
| Your own private virtual computer | Yes | Yes |
| An AI that remembers what matters to you | Yes | Yes |
| Chat from your browser | Yes | Yes |
| Chat from messaging apps | Planned | Planned |
| Build and change apps by asking | — | Yes |
| Undo changes to your workspace | — | Yes |
| You approve what each app can use | — | Yes |
Plans aren't final, and pricing will come later. Your AI runs on your own AI account.
Run a small shop? The same workspace can build its little tools: a stock list, a booking sheet, a quote calculator. Say so when you join.
Questions
- Do I need to know how to code?
- No. You ask in everyday words, and ask for changes the same way.
- What if it breaks something?
- Press undo. It's designed so a copy is saved before every change, and so nothing you build can remove the undo button.
- Can I use it from my phone?
- It's designed for phones first.
- Does it come with any apps?
- A few plain starter apps, like Notes and Checklist, that you can ask to reshape. Everything else, you ask for.
- What's the AI underneath?
- Hermes Agent, an open-source AI agent by Nous Research, set up and configured by us. It connects to your own AI account.
