Open Humans — AI that amplifies humans, on your machine, with your keys
Your AI.
Your keys.
Your machine.
Local-first AI powered by the keys you already pay for. Hands-free voice, a fleet of AI members, any model behind each one. Nothing leaves your machine unless you send it. Open Voice is in early access now.
Most AI tools are a black box you rent by the message: eight tabs, someone else’s cloud, a different chat box for every model. Your conversations train it. Your access ends when their billing does. You can’t see inside, and you can’t take it with you.
You talk. It works. You keep moving.
“Add cumin to the grocery list and text it to Sam.”
“Research three options and tell me which to pick.”
Hands-free, on your machine.
Why it feels different
Voice built like an instrument.
Most voice AI dies the moment a call comes in, you lock your screen, or you switch apps. Open Voice doesn’t. The audio session heals itself — push-to-talk or true hands-free, your voice streams in, its voice streams back in real time, and it never freezes mid-sentence. It feels like a phone call, because we built it like one.
Open by design.
Own your AI
It runs on your computer. Your files, history, and context stay on disk you control.
Any model
A Claude subscription, OpenAI Codex, or any API key. Pick the brain per member; swap the chip in one tap.
Local-first
Your machine is the default. A hosted option exists for when you want it — never the only door.
Your fleet
Add and remove AI members like contacts. Each one its own role, memory, and model. You’re the org chart.
The core demo
Meet your fleet.
Add members like contacts. Give each one a brain — a second Claude account, an OpenAI Codex login, or any API key. Talk to one, hand the thread to another mid-flow without losing your place: “Hand that to the research one.”
Each member keeps its own memory, working directory, and voice. It’s your fleet, not one assistant.
Swap the chip.
Every member’s brain is a setting, not a sentence — run your power member on a Claude subscription, your code member on Codex, your high-volume member on a metered API key. Change the engine in seconds without losing the conversation. The voice stays the same. The engine underneath is yours to choose.
The trust mechanic
Bring your own key.
You paste your key once. It lands in a named slot on your machine and never leaves it — not to our servers, not into logs, not into backups. We only ever show you the masked last few characters. The key that powers your AI is yours, and it stays yours.
One foundation, three tools.
Add your keys once; every Open Humans tool runs on the same local-first, any-model engine. Start with Open Voice today — Open Studio and Open Council join the family soon.
