**Neocortex**, a human-like memory engine that can accurately work with over 1 billion tokens. Neocortex indexes 10 million tokens in under 10 seconds, costs $1 to index 5 million tokens, and runs on a MacBook Air CPU with zero LLM dependency. Neocortex goes beyond vector databases. It understands time, entities, and relationships, and it models memory the way the human brain does: by compressing, forgetting strategically, and building knowledge graphs.
**A personalized subconscious system** inspired by the Purkinje cell, a specialized neuron in the human brain responsible for random thoughts and consciousness. OpenHuman's subconscious triggers over 10,000 memory recall loops per day for under $1, producing proactive insights, pattern recognition, and emergent "thoughts" that feed into a self-learning loop.
**A local-first desktop app** that runs AI models directly on your machine. OpenHuman uses Gemma 3 for chat, vision, speech-to-text, and text-to-speech, all on-device. Two flagship capabilities power the experience: Screen Intelligence captures and analyzes your screen activity locally, and Auto-complete uses your memory context to suggest completions on any text surface. Your raw data never leaves your device.
Together, these systems turn OpenHuman into something fundamentally different from a chatbot. It is an AI agent that consumes large amounts of personal data at low cost, maintains a persistent and evolving understanding of your world, and takes proactive actions on your behalf.

## Who it's for
OpenHuman is built for people and teams who operate across many conversations and tools, and feel the cost of it.
- **Developers and power users** in the AI ecosystem, especially those using OpenClaw, CrewAI, and similar agentic frameworks, who need a memory and context layer that actually scales.
- **High-volume communicators** who miss decisions, context, and follow-ups buried in message noise across multiple platforms.
- **Traders and analysts** who need fast signal extraction and risk awareness across information channels, both on-chain and off-chain.
- **Distributed teams** who make decisions in chat but need structured follow-through in external tools.
* **Knowledge workers** who spend their days across 8+ applications and lose context every time they switch. Screen Intelligence and Auto-complete turn your daily workflow into cumulative awareness rather than repeated context loss.

### Set Up Screen Intelligence
Screen Intelligence is one of OpenHuman's core capabilities. It captures your screen activity locally and builds context from what you see across your applications throughout the day.
**How it works:** The desktop app takes screenshots approximately every 5 seconds and processes them using the on-device vision model (Gemma 3). Each capture is analyzed into a structured summary: which app you were using, what content was on screen, and what you were doing. The raw screenshots are processed and discarded. Only the compressed summaries persist in your local Neocortex memory.
**Per-app permissions:** You control which applications Screen Intelligence monitors. When you first enable it, you can review and adjust which apps are included. Exclude any application you want to keep private, such as banking, medical, or personal apps. You can change these permissions at any time from settings.
**What gets stored:** Structured summaries only. "User was reviewing a spreadsheet in Google Sheets showing Q3 revenue figures" rather than a pixel-for-pixel copy of your screen. Raw screenshots never leave your device and are not stored after processing.
***
### Enable Auto-complete
Auto-complete uses your Neocortex memory combined with the local model to suggest relevant text completions on any input surface across your system.
Because it draws on your accumulated context, suggestions reflect your actual terminology, projects, contacts, and patterns. This is different from generic auto-complete: it knows what you have been working on, who you have been talking to, and what is currently relevant.
Auto-complete runs entirely on your local model. No keystroke data or text input is sent to any server. You can enable or disable it from settings at any time.

Before anything reaches the cloud, OpenHuman runs AI models directly on your machine. The desktop app uses Gemma 3 for chat, vision analysis, speech-to-text, and text-to-speech, all running locally on your device's hardware.
Two capabilities define the desktop experience:
**Screen Intelligence** captures screenshots of your screen approximately every 5 seconds and processes them locally using the on-device vision model. Each capture is summarized into structured context: what application you were using, what content was visible, what actions you were taking. Raw screenshots are not stored long-term or sent to any server. You control which apps are included through per-app permissions, so you can exclude sensitive applications like banking or medical tools.
**Auto-complete** uses your accumulated memory context combined with the local model to generate relevant text completions on any input surface across your system. Because it draws on your Neocortex memory, the suggestions reflect your actual work context, terminology, and patterns rather than generic predictions.
Both features run entirely on-device. No raw screen data or keystroke data touches any server.

Screen Intelligence processes visual information through a local vision model, which means accuracy depends on screen clarity, text size, and application complexity. Highly dynamic or visually dense interfaces may produce less precise summaries.

#### **How is OpenHuman different from other AI memory solutions like Mem0, SuperMemory, or MemGPT?**
Most AI memory solutions use vector databases that retrieve whatever is semantically similar, but similarity alone says nothing about importance. They also cannot support consciousness-like systems or process data accurately at scale beyond 10 million tokens. Neocortex is architecturally different: it uses tiered memory, knowledge graphs, temporal weighting, and semantic deduplication. It processes 10 million tokens in under 10 seconds and supports over 1 billion tokens total. It does this with zero LLM dependency.

**Is OpenHuman open source?**
#### **Is OpenHuman open source?**
Yes. OpenHuman is built on the OpenClaw architecture and licensed under GNU GPL3. The full codebase is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/tinyhumansai/openhuman). Neocortex benchmarks are also open-sourced. Contributions and feedback are welcomed.

**Is OpenHuman AGI?**
#### **Is OpenHuman AGI?**
No. OpenHuman is not AGI, and we do not claim it is. It is a meaningful architectural step closer to AGI, with innovations in memory (Neocortex) and consciousness-like processing (the subconscious system) that go beyond what existing agentic systems offer. But it operates within defined boundaries and requires human judgment.
***
#### **Does Screen Intelligence see everything on my screen?**
Only for the apps you allow. Screen Intelligence captures screenshots approximately every 5 seconds and processes them using the on-device vision model. You control which applications are included through per-app permissions. You can exclude any application, such as banking, medical, or personal apps. Raw screenshots are processed locally and discarded. Only compressed text summaries are stored. No raw screen images are ever sent to any server.
***
#### **Can I turn off Screen Intelligence?**
Yes. Screen Intelligence is entirely optional. You can disable it at any time from settings. OpenHuman continues to function with your other connected sources and manual queries.
***
#### **Does Auto-complete send my typing to a server?**
No. Auto-complete runs entirely on the local model using cached memory context from Neocortex. No keystroke data, text input, or completion suggestions leave your device.
#### Does OpenHuman read all my messages?
No. OpenHuman only processes messages **when you ask it to** and only within the scope of your request.
If you ask it to summarize a specific conversation, it reads that conversation. If you do not reference a source, it is not accessed. There is no background monitoring or continuous scanning.

#### **Screen Intelligence summaries seem inaccurate**
The on-device vision model processes screenshots locally. Accuracy depends on screen clarity, text size, and application complexity. Highly dynamic interfaces, very small text, or applications with unusual layouts may produce less precise summaries.
**Solution:** Check your per-app permissions to ensure the relevant app is included. For applications with small text, increasing display zoom may improve capture quality. If summaries for a specific app are consistently poor, you can exclude it and rely on other context sources instead.
***
#### **Auto-complete suggestions feel irrelevant**
Auto-complete draws on your Neocortex memory context. If you have recently connected sources or just started using Screen Intelligence, the memory may not yet have enough context to generate relevant suggestions.

**Neocortex** is the memory engine. It ingests data from connected sources, builds knowledge graphs, manages tiered memory, and provides the recall capabilities that power both conscious queries and subconscious processing. Detailed in Neocortex.
**Local processing** runs AI models directly on your device. Gemma 3 handles chat, vision analysis (for Screen Intelligence), speech-to-text, and text-to-speech. This layer processes raw screen captures, handles Auto-complete suggestions, and manages local encryption. No raw data leaves this layer.
<figure><img src="/broken/files/9CaipntgroxxUYuIrQXB" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
**Multi-agent orchestration** distributes work across specialized agents rather than relying on a single monolithic model. An orchestrator agent manages routing, personality, and context distribution. Specialist agents handle specific domains: communication analysis, document synthesis, task management, trading. Agents execute in parallel, not sequentially, enabling real-time responsiveness.
**Privacy-preserving inference** ensures that raw data never leaves the user's device. Data is encrypted on-device with AES-256-GCM. Encryption keys never leave the device. Only compressed metadata and summaries are processed server-side. Detailed in [Privacy & Security](../product/privacy-and-security.md).

1. **Ingestion.** Data arrives from connected sources: Telegram, Slack, Gmail, Notion, blockchain wallets, and others. Each source has its own connector that handles authentication and data retrieval.
2. **Compression.** Neocortex processes raw data on-device. Semantic deduplication removes noise. Entity resolution links references across sources. Temporal weighting prioritizes recency. The output is a compressed knowledge graph, not raw text.
3. **Storage.** The knowledge graph is stored in Neocortex's tiered memory system. Raw data is discarded after compression. Only structured metadata and summaries persist.
4. **Conscious processing.** When you make a request, the orchestrator routes it to the appropriate specialist agent(s). Those agents query Neocortex for relevant context, process your request, and return a result.
5. **Subconscious processing.** Independent of your requests, the subconscious system triggers periodic memory recalls from Neocortex. These feed into a self-learning loop that surfaces proactive insights, patterns, and recommendations.
6. **Output.** Results are presented to you directly or exported to connected tools like Notion and Google Sheets. Only structured, compressed intelligence leaves the device. Raw data never does.

#### Local Models
The desktop app runs the following models on your device hardware:
**Gemma 3 (chat):** Handles conversational interactions, query processing, and response generation locally. For requests that require deeper reasoning or larger context, processing is routed to the server-side intelligence layer.
**Gemma 3 (vision):** Processes screen captures from Screen Intelligence. Analyzes visual content to produce structured summaries of what is on screen: application names, visible text, interface elements, and user activity context.
**Speech-to-text:** Converts voice input to text locally. No audio data is sent to any server.
**Text-to-speech:** Generates spoken responses locally for voice interaction.
All local models run on your device's CPU. No GPU is required, though GPU acceleration is used when available. The models are optimized for low memory footprint and fast inference.

#### What Neocortex Indexes
Neocortex ingests data from multiple source types:
**Messaging platforms:** Telegram, Slack, Discord, and other connected communication tools. Messages, conversations, group discussions, and channel activity are all compressed into the knowledge graph.
**Screen activity:** When Screen Intelligence is enabled, the on-device vision model produces structured summaries of your screen captures. These summaries are indexed by Neocortex as context about what you were working on, which applications you used, and what content you were viewing.
**Productivity tools:** Documents from Notion, data from Google Sheets, and other connected tools contribute entities and relationships to the graph.
**Blockchain data:** Wallet activity, transaction history, and on-chain events from connected Web3 sources.
Every source type feeds into the same unified knowledge graph. Cross-source entity resolution ensures that a project mentioned in Slack, visible on your screen in a spreadsheet, and documented in Notion is understood as one entity.

OpenHuman adapts to different coordination and information environments across communication platforms. While the underlying system remains the same, the way value is realized depends on how your tools and conversations are used in each context. This section outlines common use cases to help you understand where OpenHuman fits naturally and where it may offer limited benefit.
---
***
## Individual Power Users
Individual power users often participate in many active conversations and channels at once. Important messages are easily missed, and catching up becomes time-consuming and mentally draining.
In this context, OpenHuman is used to summarize conversations, surface high-signal updates, and provide quick context before responding. Users rely on it to understand what changed, what requires attention, and where follow-ups may be needed without scrolling through entire threads.
You ask OpenHuman: "What do I need to know from the last 12 hours?" It returns: your team agreed to move the deadline to Friday in the dev channel, Sarah raised a scope concern in a DM to you that you have not responded to, there is a heated discussion about the API redesign in the architecture group, and two people are waiting for your approval on PRs. That is 247 messages compressed to a 30-second briefing.
The value here is personal clarity and reduced cognitive load rather than shared coordination.
---
***
## Traders and Analysts
Traders and analysts use communication platforms as real-time information sources. Signal quality varies widely, and misinformation, repetition, and scams are common.
OpenHuman is used to extract claims, track how information resolves over time, and surface signals weighted by historical reliability within context. Risk intelligence helps flag suspicious behavior or repeated failure patterns across groups and channels.
OpenHuman extracts claims from conversations and tracks how they resolve over time. When someone in a trading group says "this token is going to 10x by Friday," that becomes a tracked claim with a resolution date.
Over time, you see who is consistently accurate and who is consistently wrong, within that specific context. Risk intelligence flags behavioral patterns associated with scams: coordinated message timing, impersonation signals, or repeated failure patterns across groups.
The outcome is better information filtering and reduced exposure to low-quality or malicious signals not automated trading or execution.

## Distributed Teams
Distributed teams often use messaging platforms for fast coordination, even when formal work happens elsewhere. Decisions and commitments are made in chat and later forgotten or misinterpreted.
OpenHuman is used to extract actions, preserve decision context, and sync structured outcomes to tools like Notion or Google Sheets when needed. This reduces friction between discussion and execution without forcing teams to abandon their preferred communication platforms.
OpenHuman extracts actions and decisions from conversations and can export them to Notion or Google Sheets as structured records. When you ask "What did we commit to this week?", it returns a list with attribution and source context.

## When OpenHuman Is Not a Good Fit
OpenHuman provides limited value in environments where conversations are purely social, meme-driven, or intentionally ephemeral. It is also not designed for high-frequency trading execution, formal project management, or environments that require strict real-time guarantees.
Screen Intelligence adds less value in workflows that are primarily non-visual (terminal-only work, audio-only meetings without screen sharing) or in environments where screen content changes very rarely.
Understanding these boundaries helps users apply OpenHuman where it is strongest.
