Short answers.
What does it cost?
Free during Early Access. Later, parts of it may cost money: we’ll email you at least 30 days before, and nothing becomes paid without your OK. Your model provider’s terms, limits and costs apply; a local model costs nothing. With an API key, the app shows what each task cost.
Which AI models can I use?
Any model you like, and each bot can use a different one: your ChatGPT or Claude plan (through Codex or Claude Code on your computer or server, signed in with your own account), an API key for OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter or any OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible service, or a local model in Ollama or LM Studio. You don’t need a new subscription.
Can my bots run while my computer is off?
Yes, on your own server: a Linux computer that stays on, such as a home server, a NAS, a Raspberry Pi 5 or a rented server. Your bots keep working while your computer is off, and you use them from the Mac or Windows app and the iPhone app. Server guide
Why do I need an account?
You sign in to the app with a free Hesperan account. It also gets you the downloads and updates, and lets your iPhone reach your bots away from home. If hesperan.com can’t be reached, the app keeps working for 30 days. Your bots, chats and memory never go to it.
Is the source code available?
Not publicly: its source is private for now. It is free to use during Early Access. It is licensed under AGPL-3.0-only, and programs by others inside it keep their own licences. Source code and licences
