The problem is not intelligence. It is context. Memory keeps the record on a device you can see and gives agents only the access you configure.

Bring It Home. Import the mail, notes, meetings, and files you choose.
Make It Useful. Memory connects people, places, projects, and decisions on your own disk.
Give Agents Context. Your agents can pick up where you left off without renting your history back.

Quick answers

What is Companion Intelligence?

Reviewed October 25, 2026

What is Companion Intelligence?

Companion Intelligence is a local-first AI system for private digital memory, self-hosted automation, and personal data sovereignty. It helps users run apps, agents, and workflows closer to hardware they control.

How does Companion Intelligence work?

Companion Intelligence runs locally using Docker on Mac, Windows, or Linux. Users can install it themselves or use a Companion server preconfigured with Companion OS. From Companion Hub, users can download and manage apps, agents, and local-first tools.

How is Companion Intelligence different from cloud-based AI tools?

Unlike cloud-based AI tools, Companion Intelligence is designed to run locally, so your files, prompts, workflows, and memory do not have to be routed through third-party AI platforms by default.

Can I use Companion Intelligence without an internet connection?

Yes, many local features can run without an internet connection. Internet access may still be needed for software updates, remote access, app downloads, and optional integrations.

Your machine. Your memory. Your agent.
