Krystalize — your AI personal assistant and chief of staff

A local-first
AI Operating System
for Apple Metal

Your projects, AI assistants, and knowledge stay private on your Mac, protected in one encrypted database that never leaves your computer.

Privacy is architecture, not policy.

01Three commitments
01

It remembers you

Built on principles of cognitive neuroscience, Krys crystallizes what matters about its primary user — preferences, projects, patterns — and carries them across every session.

02

It stays home

Models, memory, and messages live on your hardware. Nothing leaves the machine unless you offer it. No cloud dependency, no telemetry, no exceptions.

03

It shares work, not data

KrysWire lets idle silicon join the mesh — SETI@Home for models. Offer spare compute and model capability; borrow it back when you need more.

02The Problem

Six gaps no one has closed.

01

Context Fragmentation

Your code is in one place. Your chats in another. Tasks in a third. Notes in a fourth. Every tool has a piece. None has the picture.

02

Amnesia by Design

Every session starts blank. Your AI doesn't remember yesterday's breakthrough, last week's architecture decision, or the dead end you spent three hours proving.

03

Invisible Memory

What does your AI actually know right now? How close is it to forgetting? You can't see it. You can't control it. You just hope.

04

Opaque Agents

Is it running? What's it doing? Did it finish? Agent execution is a black box. You launch it and pray.

05

Locked-In Knowledge

Your Claude history dies in Claude. Your GPT history dies in GPT. A year of conversations, insights, and decisions — gone the moment you switch tools.

06

Your Data, Their Server

Every prompt, every file, every conversation — uploaded somewhere else. Indexed for "product improvement." Subpoenable. Breachable. Not yours in any meaningful sense.

03The Solution

One workspace. Total recall.

Unified Dashboard

Chat, code, terminal, tasks, notes, and agents — all in one view. No tab-switching. No context-switching. Everything your project needs, visible at once.

Widget-based dashboard with drag-and-drop layout

Crystal Memory

Not just "memory." Explicit crystallization of what matters — validated approaches, confirmed preferences, known dead ends — persisted as durable knowledge that survives every session.

episodic → crystal → parametric

Agent Orchestration

Structured agents with hierarchy, permissions, event triggers, cron schedules, and circuit breakers. See what's running. Control what it can do. Resume where it stopped.

Event-driven automation with real-time visibility
KrysWire — the mesh

Have more than one M-series Mac?

They work together automatically, combining their power to run faster, smarter, and more capable AI models. It's like SETI @ Home, but for you. Not aliens.

04Features

Built for how you actually work.

Persistent Workspaces

Reopen a project and land exactly where you left off. Files, chats, tasks, layout, agent state — all restored. No reconstruction.

Crystal Memory

Crystallize meaningful outcomes into durable, scoped directives. Positive and negative knowledge that every future session inherits automatically.

Agent Triggers

Cron schedules, event listeners, webhooks, manual fire. Your agents run when something happens — not just when you remember to ask.

Any MCP, Instantly

25 tools ship in the box

Full Model Context Protocol integration. Connect any MCP server — ours or third-party — and it just works. A growing catalog ships pre-loaded. No vendor lock-in.

Local-First

Your repos. Your models. Your machine. Zero cloud dependency. No upload limits. No data leaving localhost. Full project indexing without API token constraints.

Spawn Anything

Pick a task. Pick a surface — chat, code, or agent. Launch. Your session inherits the project context, crystal memory, and instructions automatically. Plan to execution in one click.

Beta

Krystalize everything.

Krystalize is in private beta and ready to try — built for engineers, founders, and power users who are tired of starting from zero. Launch it in your browser; your projects, agents, and knowledge stay on your machine.

Local-first. Open protocol. No data leaves your machine. Ever.
