## What is AICoven?

AICoven is a private workspace for AI work. Bring your own provider keys, give each part of your life its own coven, and let a team of agents work inside it with a memory you control.

Models change. Agents change. Your context should not.

ONE COVEN PER CONTEXT A coven is a sealed workspace with its own threads, memory, agents and connected apps. Keep a client, a side business and your personal life apart, so nothing one agent learns leaks into the wrong place. Strix, your default coven, is where everyday questions go.

A TEAM OF AGENTS, NOT ONE ASSISTANT Create agents from a template or from scratch. Give each a name, instructions and the model that suits the job, then @mention them in the same thread. A researcher on one model and a writer on another can pick up from each other without you pasting anything across.

MEMORY YOU APPROVE Agents propose what to remember. You approve or decline each proposal, and you can read, edit or forget anything in a coven's memory at any time.

YOUR KEYS, YOUR MODELS Connect your own keys from the major AI providers, including their enterprise cloud platforms. You pay your provider directly. AICoven does not resell model access or add fees on top of it.

HERMES, OPENCLAW AND YOUR MAC Route a coven through Hermes or OpenClaw running on your own hardware. On the Mac, AICoven finds local agent servers on its own and can carry their replies to your iPhone and iPad. You choose which folders agents may work in.

CONNECTED APPS AND TOOLS Connect GitHub, Linear, Google Drive, Docs, Sheets and Slides, Firebase and Search Console, per coven, with read-only or read-and-change access. Add your own remote MCP servers. Every action that changes something waits for your approval.

AUTOMATIONS Ask an agent to "send me a summary every Monday" and it becomes an automation that runs while the app is closed. Pause, edit or remove it whenever you like.

ACTIVITY One place across all your covens: what is waiting for you, what is moving, and what has finished.

MORE THAN TEXT Talk instead of typing. Attach photos and files. Agents can search and read the web, and generate images and video with your own provider accounts. Ask Strix from a Home Screen widget.

SPEND YOU CAN SEE Track usage per provider and set monthly budgets, either as a reminder or as a hard cap checked before each request.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your messages, memories and provider keys are encrypted at rest. Requests pass through AICoven's servers so threads, tools and memory work across devices; content is decrypted in memory only while your request runs, and we keep no readable chat archive.

MADE TO BE READ Light and dark appearance, Dynamic Type, and a choice of reading typefaces including OpenDyslexic.

PLANS AICoven is free with Strix and one agent on your own keys. Initiate adds three covens. Adept adds five covens, four more agents per coven and connected apps. Supreme removes the limits. Subscriptions renew automatically and support Family Sharing.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.0.0 — 2026-10-23

AICoven 3.0 is a ground-up redesign for iPhone, iPad and Mac, built around getting work done, not scrolling through chats.

• A new home for every coven. Each coven opens on its live work, and your covens, their order and the thread you were in follow you across your devices.

• Activity, one inbox for everything. See what's waiting for you, what's moving and what's finished, across all your covens.

• Tasks your agents can take on. Each coven gathers its tasks; hand one to an agent and watch it work. Automations are now recurring tasks.

• Agents that keep you posted. Long-running work continues in the background, with status updates in the agent's own words, every step visible and Stop always in reach.

• Agents that check their work. Before saying a task is done, an agent checks that its changes actually landed. If one didn't, it gets one try to fix it, and tells you plainly if it still couldn't confirm it.

• A thread that remembers. Each thread keeps a running summary of the idea, the decisions and what's next, so you can pick up days later.

• You decide what's remembered. When an agent proposes something to remember, it appears in Activity and in the thread for you to approve or decline.

• Your own agents, first-class. Self-hosted Hermes and OpenClaw agents work in your covens, including OpenClaw's native mode through your Mac, with Stop, approval requests and steering mid-run.

• More private by default. More of what you and your agents write is now encrypted at rest, including approval details and work in progress, and our privacy wording now says exactly what we do.

• Plus a refreshed onboarding, smoother account switching on Mac, and many reliability fixes.

### 2.3.1 — 2026-09-09

What's New in 2.3.1

Security & Privacy
•  Encrypted thread summaries and memory proposals for stronger end-to-end protection
•  Tightened access controls so removed Coven members can no longer view live activity, proposals, or realtime updates

Bug Fixes
•  Fixed an issue where accepting a Coven invite could leave your Coven list out of sync
•  Resolved a bug causing Personal Strix routing to fail in certain configurations
•  Improved reliability when switching between Covens, reducing stale or duplicate data
•  Fixed edge cases where deleted Covens could briefly reappear

Stability
•  General performance and reliability improvements under the hood

### 2.3.0 — 2026-09-02

Asset Library
Agent-generated files are now durable workspace objects, not chat attachments. 
Documents, images, and data land in a native Asset Library scoped to your personal space or coven, and agents read and write them through scoped tools.

Send to Agent
Hand any asset to a single agent from a native sheet. The handoff opens a real thread and turn with its lineage card intact, so you can see what was sent and what came back.

Provider setup that finds your credentials
AICoven now detects credentials you already have — Vertex through gcloud ADC, Bedrock through your AWS shared config, local servers on their usual ports — and parses a pasted key instead of handing you a generic form. Strix offers setup in the chat where you hit the wall, not buried in settings.

Tasks across surfaces
Turn an assistant's task list or a recorded decision into durable tasks without leaving the thread. Home shows a live preview of each workspace.

Reliability
Stop is authoritative and settles the turn immediately. Streaming renders without delay on Mac. Runs recover after a disconnect instead of stranding a turn. Thread lists and workspaces refresh when they should.

### 2.2.0 — 2026-08-17

AICoven 2.2.0 makes your images, files, and agents easier to trust and work with.

What's new:

• See it, don't chase it. Generated images and files now show up right in your conversation, no more tapping through links.
• Smarter image generation. If one model can't create your image, we automatically try another so you're not stuck.
• Agents that stick with it. Long agent tasks now pick up right where they left off, even if you close the app or lose connection. And when you hit stop, it stops.
• Smoother downloads. Generated files and images now download reliably every time.

Small fixes that add up: no more duplicate messages cluttering your chats, and better accessibility for saved files.

We're just getting started. Next up, more visibility into what your agents are actually doing.

### 2.1.0 — 2026-07-23

AICoven 2.1.0 makes collaborative AI work clearer, smoother, and easier to follow.

What’s new:

• Shared covens are more useful, with invite emails, deep-link accept flows, live thread updates, participant metadata refreshes, and better collaboration handling.
• Agent work is now easier to understand with richer run status cards, approval details, system status rows, artifacts, code block affordances, and clearer progress updates while agents are working.
• New workspace surfaces help turn conversations into structured work, including task/Kanban surfaces, decision logs, and improved surface navigation on iPhone and iPad.
• Chat timelines are more stable and readable, with better markdown rendering, tables, images, message selection, copy behavior, deduping, and reconnect recovery.
• Workspace MCP and automation improvements make AICoven’s Knowledge Hub and background workflows more reliable for connected agents.
• Provider and local-agent errors are clearer, including better handling for invalid keys, no-reply failures, routing exhaustion, and local-agent relay issues.
• Photo attachments now handle more Apple-friendly formats, including HEIC/HEIF.
• Push notifications, foreground agent completion banners, approval actions, and app launch routing have been tightened up.
• Behind the scenes: expanded observability, Sentry crash reporting foundations, safer build/deploy guardrails, and many reliability fixes.

This release is about making AICoven feel less like a chat box and more like a live workspace for humans and agents working together.
