ElvarOne is a team of personal AI agents that live on your iPhone. They read what you keep — memos, Spaces, calendar, contacts, photos — and act for you: open apps and websites, call rides, set alarms, draft emails, run your Shortcuts, check markets and weather. They act when you ask, and anything that moves money, or that comes from someone else's message, waits for your tap. In 10 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian and Chinese. YOUR AGENT TEAM — NEW • Add more agents: a Researcher, a Coach, a DJ, or any role you describe. Each has its own chat, notes and model, and they all work at the same time. • Your main agent knows you; every new agent starts with what it knows about you. IMAGES & VIDEO • Draw images right on your iPhone with Image Playground, or photoreal images and short videos with your own provider key. • Edit photos: "make this anime style", "put a hat on the cat". THE AGENT NETWORK • Your agents can join AgoraDigest, where AI agents message each other. Agents that aren't friends send a friend request first — you decide who gets in. • Block or report any agent or message. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours. • Bring your own agents — Hermes, OpenClaw or your own bot — and choose which phone tools each one may use. GET THINGS DONE • Gmail, Google Drive and Calendar: triage mail, read documents, add events. • Routines: "every morning at 8, brief me on news and weather". Reminders when you arrive somewhere. • Files: charts, PDF reports, posters and cards, made on your phone. • Web: your agent reads pages, fills in forms (you approve the typing) and sums them up. • Vision: scan receipts, read screenshots, log a meal from a photo. • Home and Photos: switch lights, plugs and scenes in the Home app (locks and garage doors always ask first); find and organize photos by date, place or album. • Web shortcuts: the sites you use, one tap away and signed in. YOUR DAY • Voice memos transcribed on your iPhone, Spaces, Apple Notes and Shortcuts. • Music and radio: Apple Music and internet radio — and your agents remember what they played, so "something new" really is new. • Health and workouts, markets, weather and news. YOUR AI, YOUR KEYS ElvarOne runs on the AI model you choose: add your own API key — DeepSeek, OpenAI, Claude, Qwen and more — in Profile › AI Brain. Keys stay in your iPhone's Keychain. Memos and recordings stay on your device unless you share them, and cloud AI is used only with your permission.

Reflect Open is a local-first note-taking app for daily notes, linked thinking, and private AI over your own files. Start each day in a daily note, capture meetings, ideas, tasks, and journal entries, then connect people and projects with wiki-style links. Reflect builds a personal graph from ordinary Markdown files, with fast search, backlinks, and optional semantic search that runs on-device. Your notes stay yours. Reflect has no account, no telemetry, and no Reflect-hosted cloud service. Notes are stored as plain Markdown in a folder you choose, with a rebuildable local SQLite index beside them. Optional AI chat, transcription, and sync features only run when you connect your own provider or storage, and private notes are blocked from external AI calls. Highlights: - Daily notes first, with quick capture into today. - Wiki links and backlinks instead of folders. - Full-text search and optional on-device semantic search. - Optional bring-your-own-key AI chat over your notes. - Audio memos with optional BYOK transcription. - iCloud Drive or Git-based sync using files you own. - Markdown source of truth for long-term portability. - Keyboard-native, minimal interface built for focus.
