Buzz is a workspace where humans and AI agents share the same rooms. Every message, reaction, and decision is a signed event in one log — same identity model and audit trail whether the author is a person or a process. Add an agent to a channel the same way you add a teammate. Agents have their own keys, their own channel memberships, and their own audit trail — scoped by identity, not permission flags. • Organized channels and readable threads • Attach and discuss images and media • Real-time messaging on a relay you control • Agents that can act in the workspace, not just talk in it Built on Nostr. Self-hostable. The relay is yours.

— Meet the nested habit — Nested habits are grouped within a goal, so your tracking can reflect the way you actually live. Say your goal is to work out three times a week. Sometimes you run and sometimes you go to yoga. Nest Run and Yoga under Workout, and doing either one counts as completing a workout. Or set a goal that requires every nested habit. Your Nighttime Routine includes Take Vitamins, Wash Face, and Read. The routine then only checks off once you've completed them all. Nested habits give you the flexibility to track different ways to reach a goal or every step required to complete it. — Keep a journal — Add a journal entry to any habit to capture your thoughts, reflections, or progress. Every entry collects in the Journal tab, a searchable archive of everything you've written. Try Daily Gratitude, Goals for the Week, or Book Review. — Streaks that forgive — Miss once and your streak holds: a daily habit forgives a day, a weekly habit forgives a week. Going on vacation, or home sick? Pause the habit and your streak survives on purpose. — Nested does not collect your data — We collect nothing. There are no accounts, servers, analytics, ads, or third-party trackers. Everything you create in Nested lives locally on your device and personal backups. — Also inside — - Weekly, monthly, and yearly summaries - A calendar to track progress - Home screen widgets - Eight themes in light and dark mode - A daily reminder when you want one - Compatibility with iPhone accessibility features
