Skales vs PA Node

Skales is an AI agent that does the work, not just the talking. Give it a job and it plans the steps, uses real tools (calendar, reminders, web, files, contacts) and delivers a finished result, asking your permission before anything that matters. It runs on the AI of your choice, pairs with your computer, and keeps what it knows about you on your device. No terminal, no setup. NEW: SKALES SCOUT (BETA) A scout is your own lasting AI agent with a name, a role and a rhythm. It makes rounds on its own, brings suggestions you answer with Go or Wait, keeps a morning standup and an evening summary, and holds goals over several days. Lead scouts hand work to sub-scouts. Each scout has its own model and daily budget, and you decide how far it may go. Run a scout only on your phone, or run the scouts on your computer from your pocket. WHAT AN AGENT DOES THAT A CHATBOT CANNOT "Plan my Friday" becomes a schedule in your real calendar. "Research this and write me a briefing" becomes cited sources and a document. "Wake me at 6" sets an alarm. Turn on Pocket Run and the agent keeps working across many steps until the job is done. EVERY MAJOR AI, ONE APP Start free with Skales IQ: just your email, no API key, no card. Or bring your own key for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, OpenRouter and more. Pick the reasoning depth per conversation, attach photos and files, and switch models anytime. AUTOMATION WITH A HARNESS Skales is built as an agent harness: tools, memory, skills and permissions working together. Built-in agents, custom agents and whole teams. Build automations from the chat. Every action that touches the outside world asks first. Connect Home Assistant, Spotify or WordPress with your own account. TALK TO IT: IRIS ORBIT A full voice mode: talk to Iris Orbit or to your Buddy and it talks back, hands-free, with your tools and approvals working as they do in chat. MAKE THINGS, NOT JUST ANSWERS Start a chat as Slides, Document or Note. Flow turns a brief into a finished document, deck or motion piece with 74 design aesthetics and your own brand kit. Lio builds a clickable prototype from a sentence. Studio generates images and video and designs social posts. A MEMORY THAT GROWS Skales remembers what matters across conversations and adapts to you, stored on your device and fully under your control. YOUR COMPUTER, FROM YOUR POCKET Pair with the free Skales desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux and your phone reaches your computer's AI, sessions, files, tools and scouts. Or open the web interface from any browser on the same network. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE, NOT BY PROMISE Your conversations and memory stay on your device by default. With your own key, requests go straight from your phone to the provider you chose; Skales runs no servers in between. No account required. No ads, no tracking, no data sold. Optional online features are clearly marked and off by default. And when you want zero cloud: Skales Local (beta) downloads an openly licensed model once and answers directly on your iPhone or iPad, even in airplane mode. DISCOVER A live community feed, topic Spaces and a personal news briefing. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE No technical knowledge needed. 12 languages. Need help? Email request@skales.app, more at skales.app.

PA Node connects your iPhone to a user-configured personal agent system, such as OpenClaw. A desktop or server agent can do a lot on its own, but some workflows only work well when the phone is part of the loop. PA Node lets your agent use phone-native capabilities like push notifications, location context, and commute-aware actions, with permissions controlled by iOS. After setup, your iPhone is registered as a trusted device using a backend-issued credential. You can receive proactive notifications, share location context when enabled, and support workflows that are not possible from a Mac mini or desktop agent alone. Features include: • Secure device setup with a backend-issued credential • Push notifications from your configured PA server • Optional location sharing for commute and phone-context workflows • Commute job status, route choice, and refresh controls • In-app setup prompts for configuring your desktop or client agent • Privacy and support information built into Settings PA Node is built for people running their own personal agent infrastructure who want the iPhone to act as a secure, permissioned extension of that system.
