openhuman
Your Personal AI super intelligence. A brain that builds a local-first memory of your life, a fantastic orchestrator of agent fleets and workflows, and a deep researcher.
OpenHuman is a local-first AI agent harness that builds persistent memory, orchestrates agent fleets, and performs deep research across connected data sources. It combines a Memory Tree system that compresses documents and communications into Markdown stored in SQLite with Obsidian vault mirroring, automatic data synchronization from 100+ OAuth integrations plus 5,000+ MCP servers, and workflow automation on durable graphs. The AI sub-agent includes meeting participation across video platforms, 17 messaging channels including native email, and a privacy mode that enforces on-device inference. OpenHuman differentiates itself through visual workflow creation, checkpointed graph execution, and agent-to-agent encrypted orchestration.

openhuman — FAQ
What is OpenHuman?+
OpenHuman is an AI agent harness that combines local-first memory storage, multi-agent orchestration, and deep research capabilities. It builds a persistent knowledge graph from your connected accounts and files, orchestrates agent fleets on checkpointed graphs, and includes meeting agents, workflow automation, and 17 messaging channels.
How do I install OpenHuman?+
Download desktop installers for your platform from tinyhumans.ai/openhuman or the GitHub Releases page. For terminal-based installation using Homebrew, Debian/Ubuntu packages, AUR, or install scripts, consult the INSTALL.md file in the repository. The application provides a UI-first setup that connects to services in minutes.
Which AI clients does OpenHuman work with?+
OpenHuman is a standalone AI agent harness, not a plugin for other clients. However, it can orchestrate external agents like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenClaw through agent-to-agent encrypted messaging and supports an optional agentmemory backend to share memory across multiple coding agents.
Does OpenHuman require API keys or a subscription?+
OpenHuman includes a managed subscription that covers model routing, web search via Exa, and media generation without separate API keys. You can optionally bring your own API keys for services like Exa or point workloads to local Ollama models. OAuth integrations require connecting your accounts but use your existing service credentials.
Is OpenHuman free and open source?+
OpenHuman is open source under the GNU license, with code available on GitHub. The software is in early beta and requires a subscription for managed services like model routing and web search, though you can configure it to use fully local models via Ollama or your own API keys.
What are the prerequisites for running OpenHuman?+
To run the desktop application, download the installer for your platform (Windows, macOS, or Linux). For development builds, you need Git, Node.js 24+, pnpm 10.10.0, Rust 1.93.0 with rustfmt and clippy, CMake, Ninja, and ripgrep, plus platform-specific desktop build prerequisites.
