▌ PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE / LOCAL FIRST

Human intent.
Amplified.

JARVIS is an AI assistant that lives on your computer, Windows or Mac. Talk to it, build with it, create with it. Bring your own AI, or run everything offline.

01 / WHAT IT DOES

One command away.

◇

Any AI, your choice

OpenAI, Claude, Grok, or a local model through LM Studio. Switch any time, no restart.

♪

Local voice

Click to talk. Speech recognition and natural Kokoro voices can run fully on your machine.

⌘

Opens your stuff

"Open notepad", "open GitHub", "what time is it". Quick commands, typed or spoken.

✦

Creator studio

Draft social posts, artwork prompts and video briefs, then send them to connected tools.

⧉

Build workspace

A code editor with an OpenCode agent beside you, working in the project you pick.

⌖

Search and map

Free local web search with SearXNG, plus a map view to explore a place and ask about it.

02 / YOUR INTELLIGENCE

One JARVIS. Your AI.

Paste a key for the provider you already pay for, or point JARVIS at a model running in LM Studio and keep every word on your own hardware. Keys you save are encrypted on your computer, with Windows encryption or your Mac Keychain, and never sent to the browser.

03 / CREATE

From idea to something real.

Describe what you want to post, pick a tone and audience, and get a draft you can edit, copy, or save. Connect MCP services like Higgsfield or Canva to turn drafts into actual media. Nothing publishes on its own.

04 / INSTALL

Up and running in three steps.

Windows

  1. 01

    Get Python

    Install Python 3.10 or newer. Tick "Add python.exe to PATH" during setup.

  2. 02

    Download and unzip

    Grab the zip, unzip it anywhere you like, such as Documents\DreadOS-AI.

    ⤓ Download for Windows
  3. 03

    Launch

    Double-click Start-JARVIS.cmd, then open http://127.0.0.1:8765 in Chrome or Edge. Open Setup to pick your AI.

Optional: local voice (offline speech in and out)
> cd DreadOS-AI
> python -m venv .venv-voice
> .venv-voice\Scripts\pip install -r requirements-voice.txt
> Start-DreadOS.cmd

After this, Start-DreadOS.cmd and Stop-DreadOS.cmd run JARVIS in the background with the Kokoro voice.

Mac

  1. 01

    Get Python

    Install Python 3.10 or newer for macOS. The Python that comes with Apple's developer tools is too old.

  2. 02

    Download and unzip

    Grab the Mac zip. Safari unzips it for you; move the DreadOS-AI folder somewhere like Documents.

    ⤓ Download for Mac
  3. 03

    Launch

    Double-click Start-DreadOS.command. The first time, macOS says it can't check the developer: click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. JARVIS opens in your browser at http://127.0.0.1:8765. Stop-DreadOS.command stops it.

Optional: local voice on Mac
$ cd ~/Documents/DreadOS-AI
$ python3 -m venv .venv-voice
$ .venv-voice/bin/pip install -r requirements-voice.txt

Then start JARVIS again with Start-DreadOS.command; it picks up the voice setup by itself.

Optional: run AI fully offline

Install LM Studio, load a chat model and start its local server. In JARVIS Setup choose Local AI, enter http://127.0.0.1:1234/v1 and click Find local models.

05 / PRIVACY

Your machine. Your rules.
