OpenHuman

An open source AI harness built with the human in mind

OpenHuman launched on May 15, 2026 with 549 votes, #15 of 20,538 launches that month and more than 99% of that year's launches.

In plain words

OpenHuman is an open-source AI assistant designed for users frustrated with existing AI tools. It operates locally on users' devices with privacy-first architecture, retaining conversation history and user data across sessions rather than resetting after each use. The platform improves over time through accumulated interactions and offers a unified, user-friendly interface without requiring command-line knowledge. With one-click setup and fully open-source code, it aims to address common barriers that cause users to abandon AI agents.

From the sources

90% of people who try AI agents give up. Three reasons: memory that resets every session, your data sitting in someone else's cloud and a terminal just to get started. Real blockers. OpenHuman fixes all of it. Local-first, privacy-first. It remembers everything about you and actually gets smarter the more you use it. Every feature lives in one simple interface. Fully open source. One-click setup. P.S. The product is in beta, so expect bugs, but we're building and shipping fast.

OpenHuman is a free, open source personal AI for Mac, Windows and Linux. Keeps your data local and orchestrates fleets of agents. 37k+ stars on GitHub.

OpenHuman is a personal super intelligent AI with an inbuilt orchestration engine to manage all your agents in one place. OpenHuman's memory engine decides what to keep, how to compress it, and what surfaces when an agent needs context. Connect up to 100 apps, 10,000 MCPs, 90,000 Skills, and more. Give your agents the tools they need to get the job done. OpenHuman's workflows engine orchestrates agents to automate whatever you want. Get started with a simple workflow, or build a complex one with multiple agents and steps. OPENHUMAN IS BEING FRAMED AS A PERSONAL AI SUPER INTELLIGENCE THAT LIVES ON YOUR LAPTOP.

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
