Open Instinct

A personal agent you text.

It has its own computer, does real tasks, and coordinates with the Instincts of the people you trust. Open source, yours to run.

Text it

iMessage, SMS or email. Ask for research, plans, bookings, reminders.

It has a computer

A Linux desktop in its own VM. Websites, files, logins you hand over live.

It knows who to trust

Partner, family, friend, stranger. Each tier can ask for different things.

This gateway only relays messages. To run your own, follow the README on GitHub.

How it works

  1. You sign up. The gateway creates an Inkbox identity with an iMessage line and a mailbox for your agent.
  2. Your agent gets a VM. Maritime starts a private machine with a desktop that sleeps when idle.
  3. You connect. Text one short command to the router number, or scan a QR code.
  4. You talk. Every message is signed by Inkbox, verified here, and handed to your agent only.
