Rakazo vs bighelp

Rakazo is a home for persistent AI teammates that can do real work. Create specialized bots, give each one a clear role, and keep every conversation in one focused thread. Your bots can use a sandboxed computer and browser, remember context, run routines, and notify you when work is complete. With the Rakazo app you can: • See all of your bots and recent activity in one place. • Create bots with their own role and instructions. • Send messages and follow work as it happens. • Open a bot's remote computer and take control when needed. • Receive notifications when a task finishes. • Connect to an Inbox Zero-hosted or self-hosted Rakazo server. Rakazo is built for people who want capable AI agents without giving up control of their infrastructure, model provider, or data. An account on a compatible Rakazo server is required.

bighelp is a streamlined way to work with the AI agents you run with Hermes. Whether you want a simple chat interface, or a full fleet command center, bighelp has it covered. CHATS THAT FEEL LIKE TEXTING • Message any of your agents one on one • Watch replies arrive as they're written • Type, talk, or share photos and files • Pick up any conversation right where you left off GROUP CHATS • Pull several agents into one thread • Mention who should take what, and they split the work A FACE FOR EVERY AGENT • Give each agent a name, a face and a job • Live avatars show when an agent is thinking, working or waiting on you WORKFLOWS Build and manage custom node-style workflows for repeatable processes across your agents! YOU STAY IN CHARGE • Approvals let an agent ask before it acts • Agents can reply with cards and forms, so choosing is one tap TASKS ON A SCHEDULE • Set up a morning brief, a weekly budget check-in or a fare watch • Pause or change a task anytime VOICE • Talk it through, turn by turn or live • Turn-based voice is transcribed on your device EVERYWHERE YOU ARE • Notifications, Live Activities, widgets and Shortcuts • An Apple Watch app for quick replies and approvals • Works on iPhone and iPad • Light and dark themes NERD MODE Everyday controls stay simple. Turn on Nerd Mode in Settings to reveal host tools like files, plugins and logs. OPTIONAL DEVICE TOOLS With your permission, agents can add to your Calendar and Reminders and see where you are. Each is off until you turn it on under Permissions. HOW BIGHELP CONNECTS bighelp connects directly to a Hermes host you run, such as your own Mac, over your home network, Tailscale or HTTPS. Sign in with that host's own login. No separate bighelp account is needed. The free bighelp plugin for Hermes adds notifications, live voice, cards and the Feed. Your Hermes host remains the agent engine. AI, voice, storage and infrastructure providers configured on that host may process data under their own terms and may require separate accounts or subscriptions.
