pclip vs Hermes Redde

pclip lets you build and run a zero-human company from your phone. Built on the open source project "PaperclipAI" it lets anyone coordinate a team of agents to get work accomplished.

Redde is a complete iPhone, iPad and Mac client for Hermes, the open-source AI agent, with CarPlay and an Apple Watch app. Talk or type, watch it work, let it get ahead of your day, and give it a crew: bots with faces and voices of their own. You bring the backend. Redde has no account and no analytics, and your conversations go only to your server, and to a voice service if you pick one. AHEAD OF YOUR DAY • Goals: tell your agent what you want to get done. It plans the steps, checks in on a schedule and shows your progress above your chats. • Morning Ideas, a Week Ahead and an Evening Wrap-up arrive as cards to swipe. Before an event, a heads-up says what to bring, and Leave-By Alerts work out from your calendar and Apple Maps when to go. • "Let me know when it ships", "check back Friday": watches and follow-ups come back on their own. Places tell your agent you've arrived; Health-aware days, if you allow. • Answers come as cards: your day as a timeline, the weather by the hour, places on a map, an email to check before it sends, a list to tick off. Approvals say in plain words what will happen. BOTS • Each Hermes profile is a bot with a face, a voice and a chat of its own. Start from a template (Researcher, Writer, Coder, Home, Planner) and make its job, model and tools your own. • Type @ to hand work to another bot, or put two to six in a group chat. Give one a schedule and its answer arrives with a notification, even with Redde closed. TALK, DON'T TYPE • Tap the mic or say "Hey" and your agent's name, ask, hear the answer, or show it what the camera sees. Speech is recognized on your device; replies are read by the built-in voice, Kokoro, ElevenLabs or your Hermes. • Or talk live, interrupting any time, with GPT-Live, Gemini Live, Grok Voice or ElevenLabs on your own key. An agent you allow can call you. • Hands-free until you say "that's all". CarPlay, Apple Watch, Siri, widgets and the Action Button. Spoken prefixes switch models or go to a bot: "Opus, review this diff". SEE THE AGENT WORK • Reasoning and tool calls live, with a Live Activity; lock the phone and it carries on. • Approve or answer from a notification, out loud, or with a nod in AirPods. Notifications reach you with Redde closed, encrypted end to end. A FULL CLIENT • Chats live in your gateway's session ledger: start on the phone, continue on the desktop. Search, pin, fork, archive, or go incognito. • An email inbox your agent sorts, with rules you set. Gmail or any mailbox; nothing is sent until you approve it. • Projects, scheduled jobs, the Kanban board, skills, plugins, memory you can see and edit, MCP servers, files and an SSH terminal. • Phone tools: your agent can use your calendar, reminders, contacts, photos and files, Apple Home and the Health data you choose, set alarms and start calls and texts, each only if you allow it. • Markdown, code, tables, diagrams and math; pictures, PDFs and audio open in place. • Attach photos, files or a day's calendar, or share from any app. Regenerate, edit and resend, or switch models with /model. YOUR BACKEND, YOUR RULES • Connect through the Hermes Dashboard or the Hermes API, on your LAN, over a tailnet, or behind Cloudflare Access, Pangolin or a reverse proxy. Several servers in one list, synced with iCloud. • Or go straight to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint: llama.cpp, llama-swap, vLLM, Ollama or a hosted provider. • Set up by QR code or link. Credentials stay in the Keychain; a key your agent asks for goes sealed straight to your server. • In 17 languages. Face ID lock, eight themes, iPad split view, iPhone Duo, and a native Mac app. • The one service we run is an optional relay for notifications, which can't read them. REQUIRES A Hermes agent (github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent) or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint; bots need Hermes. Redde includes no model and no AI service of its own. Hermes is an open-source project by Nous Research. Redde is an independent client, not affiliated with it.
