Ask once. Compare every AI. Other assistants give you one answer and you have to trust it. Jarvi asks several models the same question at the same time and puts the answers side by side, so you can swipe through them and keep the one that's actually right. COMPARE ANSWERS Send a message to two, three or more models at once. Swipe between the answer cards, keep the best one, and the conversation carries on from there. ONE APP, EVERY MODEL Twenty models from eleven vendors β€” no separate subscriptions, no separate apps. Pick a model per message, or let Jarvi pick. STUDIO Describe a picture and get it. Change the shape, make it bigger, then animate it into a short clip. Everything you make is kept and easy to find again. SKILLS Connect the tools you already use, and ask Jarvi to work with them in plain language. Add your own MCP server with a URL and a key. YOUR CONTEXT, IF YOU WANT IT Health summaries, calendar, mail, location and contacts. Each one is off by default, switched on by you, and explained before it is asked for. VOICE Hold to talk. Your words become text, and the recording is never stored. PROJECTS AND COLLECTIONS Group conversations into projects with their own files and instructions. Save any answer or picture into a collection you can come back to. JARVI PLUS Jarvi runs on credits, and Plus is how you get them: a monthly or weekly allowance, renewed automatically. Credits never expire, so a quiet month carries forward instead of vanishing, and one-off top-ups stack on top whenever you need more. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Jarvi Plus is an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://jarviai.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://jarviai.app/privacy

About

Polyflow Agents

Features
Read full description

Polyflow Agents is a phone client for an AI agent that runs on a computer you own. If you run Hermes β€” the open-source agent host β€” 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 β€” to run a command, say β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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.
