> **Early Beta**: Under active development. Expect rough edges.

> OpenHuman is not AGI. But it is a meaningful architectural step closer, with better memory, better orchestration, and better tooling.

> 🎉 Within one week of launch, OpenHuman became the number one trending repository on GitHub for nine days in a row.

# What is OpenHuman?

OpenHuman is three things most assistants aren't: **a brain** that builds a persistent, local memory of your world; **a fantastic orchestrator** that runs fleets of agents on durable graphs; and **a deep researcher** that sweeps your data and the web before you finish asking. Every bullet links to the deeper writeup in the [docs](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/).

### 🧠 The brain

- **[Memory Tree](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/memory-tree) + [Obsidian Wiki](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/obsidian-wiki)**: your data compressed into scored Markdown trees in SQLite on your machine, mirrored as an [Obsidian vault](https://x.com/karpathy/status/2039805659525644595) you can open and edit. No vector-soup black box.
- **[100+ OAuth integrations, 5,000+ MCP servers, 90,000+ Skills](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/integrations)**: one click into Gmail, Notion, GitHub, Slack and the rest of your stack. [Auto-fetch](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/obsidian-wiki/auto-fetch) feeds the brain every 20 minutes, so it has tomorrow's context this morning.
- **[Goals & Todos](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/goals-and-todos)**: long-term goals, durable per-thread goals, and a shared kanban board per conversation.
- **[TokenJuice](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/token-compression)**: tool output compressed before it hits the model: same information, up to 80% fewer tokens. A brain this big would be unaffordable without it.

### 🕸️ The orchestrator

- **[Workflows](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/workflows)**: the agent proposes the automation; you review it on a canvas and save. Durable, trigger-driven, approval-gated runs on open-source [tinyflows](https://github.com/tinyhumansai/tinyflows).
- **[A harness that finishes the job](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/developing/architecture/agent-harness)**: checkpointed graph runs on open-source [tinyagents](https://github.com/tinyhumansai/tinyagents). Stuck agents get steered, halted ones return a root cause, and every run replays with real per-call costs.
- **[A split brain, always on](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/orchestration)**: a fast reflex agent triages inbound traffic while a deep reasoning core delegates to worker fleets, steered by the subconscious.

### 🔬 The deep researcher & doer

- **Batteries included**: managed [web search](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/native-tools/web-search), powered by [Exa](https://exa.ai), is included with your OpenHuman subscription and needs no API key; bring your own Exa key to search directly on your own Exa account and billing. Plus scraper, coder toolset, a real [browser](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/native-tools/browser-and-computer), and [native voice](gitbooks/features/native-tools/voice.md) with in-process Whisper. [Model routing](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/model-routing) picks the right LLM per workload on one subscription. That subscription is a default, not a lock-in: point any workload at [your own provider key or a fully local Ollama model](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/model-routing/local-and-byok-models), and mix the three however you like.
- **[Image & video generation](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/native-tools)**: Seedream/SeedEdit images and Seedance/Veo video, straight into your workspace on the same subscription.
- **[17 messaging channels](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/channels)**: Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage… plus **native email** (IMAP IDLE + SMTP). Your agent reaches you where you already are.

### 🧍 Human, private, yours

- **Simple, UI-first & Human**: install to working agent in a few clicks, with no config files and no terminal. And it has [a face](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/mascot): a mascot that speaks, reacts, and remembers you.
- **[Privacy & security](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/privacy-and-security)**: on-device encrypted data, approval gate, OS-keyring secrets, and opt-in sandboxing. There is also **[Privacy Mode](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/privacy-mode)**: flip one switch and no inference leaves your machine, enforced in the Rust core.
- **[Themes & Theme Studio](https://tinyhumans.gitbook.io/openhuman/features/theming)**: five theme families plus a full visual editor, exportable as JSON.

## Context in minutes, not weeks

OpenHuman is the first agent harness that gets to know you in minutes. Inspired by [Karpathy's LLM Knowledgebase](https://x.com/karpathy/status/2039805659525644595). Most agents start cold. Hermes learns by watching you work; OpenClaw waits for plugins to ferry context in. Either way, you spend days or weeks before the agent knows enough about your stack to be genuinely useful.
