Your AI assistant,
on your terms. 私的。
Arauto runs on your Hermes server with your keys. It doesn't just chat — it acts. A terminal for your life, in plain language.
Not a chatbot.
A command line for your life.
Speak in plain language. Arauto turns it into action across your tools — and tells you exactly what it did.
Terminal-native
A focused command log instead of endless bubbles. Type a request, watch it execute, see the receipts. Slash-commands for the things you do daily.
It acts for you
Drafts the email, books the slot, summarizes the thread, files the note. Real actions through real skills — not just suggestions you have to do yourself.
Your persona
Give your assistant a name, a voice, a soul. It sounds the way you want — formal, playful, terse — and stays consistent across every conversation.
Three steps to your own assistant.
Connect your Hermes
In Settings, open Hermes connection and scan the QR your installer prints — or paste the URL and key by hand. Saved on-device, never on ours. Need a server? See the setup guide →
Shape its persona
Open Persona and describe who it is — name, tone, how it should behave. Skip it to use the default.
Just ask
Type in the chat like you'd talk to a person. It plans, acts across your skills, and reports back what it did.
80+ skills. Toggle what you need.
Fewer skills means faster, cheaper replies. Turn whole categories on or off in a tap.
Built like a tool, not a toy.
Real screens, both ways — the shots swap to match the theme. Flip the toggle up top and watch.
Self-hosted.
By design.
Arauto isn't a service that stores your data — it's a client to your own server. Arauto has no backend: your API key and chat history stay on your device, and your conversations go only to the AI provider you choose, under your own key — never to Arauto.
Keys stay local
Your server address and API key are stored on-device and never transmitted to us.
Your model, your bill
Bring Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Grok, or DeepSeek. You hold the provider key; you control the cost.
No tracking, no ads
No analytics on your content, no profiling, no ad networks. Nothing to sell.
It runs on your server.
Arauto is just the app — the AI runs on one Hermes you host. One command drops a small companion next to it; scan the QR the installer prints and you're connected. About two minutes.
Bring your assistant home.
Private, fast, and entirely yours. Connect your Hermes and start in under a minute.
