What it does
Aiden is a local AI OS for Windows that executes tasks, not just answers questions. It runs 100% on your machine — controls your screen, writes code, does deep research, manages files, and remembers everything across sessions. Forever. Privately. 31 AI agents. 7 LLM providers with auto-routing. Computer control with safety gates. Built-in scheduling. Persistent memory that gets smarter the longer you use it. All features free. Built solo over 12 months. Your data never leaves.
Aiden is an open source DevOS for Windows, Linux, WSL, and macOS API mode. Stable v4.21.0 through npm.
Choose among supported providers, custom endpoints, or Ollama. Aiden records durable Jobs, Evidence, and Verification so results remain inspectable.

Before moving to the next step, Aiden checks that each action actually worked. Errors are detected and recorded; recovery remains inspectable. Unknown outcomes stay explicit. Describe your goal in plain English. Aiden breaks it into steps, runs them in the…from aiden.taracod.com

It let’s you do what you’re doing with cloud AI already, just for free and on your own machine: Chatting with PDF’s, Recording and…
Aiden AI2025 · apps.apple.com · ▲8Hi HN, I built Aiden AI as a privacy-first executive assistant app that works fully offline on iPhone. It helps startup founders, busy professionals, and executives stay focused, take notes, organize schedules, and get intelligent summaries — all without sharing their data with any server. Built using Core ML and SwiftUI, it’s designed for performance and privacy. I’d love your feedback and suggestions to improve it! Happy to answer any questions.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
