Never repeat yourself to an AI again. Every AI you talk to forgets what you told it last week. Iroh doesn't. You talk, and it builds a private memory of your life that every answer comes out of. None of the setup. No blank pages, no folder system to design, no weekend you never finish. Say what's on your mind and watch your brain assemble itself, page by page. WHAT IROH DOES You talk, Iroh draws your brain. Capture a thought by voice and Iroh files it where it belongs, connects it to what it already knows, and shows you it happening. Say it once, remembered for good. Tell Iroh something and it stays told. No re-explaining your work, your family, your goals or your history at the start of every conversation. Memory you can open. Your brain is real pages you can read and edit, not a black box, and every answer cites the pages it came from. It holds what you committed to. Iroh reads back through your own notes, shows you what you already said you would do, and keeps it in mind from then on. You approve every one. It takes over what repeats. Hand Iroh the multi-step work you keep redoing and it runs the whole thing when you ask: read my brain, check my calendar, search the web, write it up. Connected to your life. Your calendar, your reminders, your files, your contacts and your health, so answers fit your actual week instead of a generic template. One brain, not twenty projects. Everything lives in one connected mind instead of scattered across chats you will never find again. BUILT FOR PEOPLE, NOT POWER USERS If you have tried note apps and quit, this is different. There is nothing to configure. The value shows up in the first 30 seconds, the moment your brain starts building itself. YOUR BRAIN STAYS YOURS Your brain lives on your device as plain text, with optional private iCloud sync. When you ask Iroh something, only the small slice of context needed for that answer goes to our AI providers, and none of them are allowed to train on your data. Nothing is sold. No ads, ever. Voice audio is deleted right after it is turned into text. FREE AND PRO Your first 5 chats a day use Iroh's best model. After that Iroh keeps going on a faster one. Free includes 3 brain builds and web research. Jobs and Commitments are Pro. Iroh Pro ($19.99/month, auto-renewing) unlocks Jobs, Commitments, every connector, and everyday chats without the daily limit. Cancel anytime in the App Store.

Polyflow Agents

Polyflow Agents is a phone client for an AI agent that runs on a computer you own. If you run Hermes — the open-source agent host — this puts that agent in your pocket: the same sessions, the same tools, the same memory, reachable from wherever you are. There is no account to create and no server of ours in the middle. The app connects straight to your host, over your own network or a private tailnet, and sends everything you do to it and nowhere else. TALK TO YOUR AGENT Type a message, dictate one, or send a photo. Replies stream in as the agent writes them, with each tool it uses shown as it runs. Sessions are persistent: pick one up from the list, search across them, rename, pin, or delete. APPROVE THE RISKY BITS When the agent needs permission — to run a command, say — it stops and asks. With the host plugin installed you get a push notification, and Allow or Deny is one tap from the lock screen. Deny sends it back to think again; nothing runs until you say so. EVERYTHING IT MAKES, KEPT Reports, pages, images, and files the agent produces land in Artifacts, ready to open on the phone. Versions are kept when a file is rewritten, so you can see what changed. SEE WHAT IT IS DOING Scheduled jobs, with their last result and next run. Tools and integrations. The model and provider it is set up to use. Logs and events, when you want to know why. SEVERAL AGENTS, ONE AT A TIME A host can run more than one agent. Add a server once and the app asks what it hosts; switch between agents and the whole app re-scopes to the one you picked. WHAT YOU NEED A Hermes host you can reach from your phone — on the same network, or through a tailnet such as Tailscale. Push notifications need a small plugin on the host; the app walks you through installing it, or can send the instructions to the agent to do itself. No host yet? Tap "Try the demo agent" on the first screen. It answers with a scripted conversation, asks for a permission, and produces an artifact, so you can see every screen before you set anything up. WHAT WE DO NOT DO We do not run analytics. We do not collect crash reports. We do not see your conversations, your files, or your credentials — they go to your host and stay there. Your sign-in is kept in the phone's keychain and sent only to the host you gave it to. Polyflow Agents is open source, MIT licensed.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Polyflow Agents at none against Iroh's 1. Polyflow Agents also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
