Petasos
Your agent. Live, in your pocket.
Petasos is the native cockpit for your own self-hosted AI agent — watch it work in real time, approve what it runs, and keep every byte on hardware you control.
$24.99 once — iPhone, iPad and Mac included.
No subscription. No account. No tracking.
It’s not a chat app. It’s a cockpit.
Most clients give you a text box. Petasos shows you the machine: the rate of tool calls, which sessions are busy, the subagents it spawned, the processes it started, and a live feed of everything as it happens. See something you don’t like? Stop it from there.
A live activity cockpit
Tool-activity chart, session status, the subagent tree, background processes and a real-time event feed. Tap to interrupt a run or stop a process.
Real conversations
Full streaming replies with rich markdown, tables and syntax-highlighted code you can copy in one tap. Dictation transcribed on-device. Attach files.
Organised like a team
Categories, channels and threads. Unread indicators, full-text search across everything your agent remembers, pinning and archiving.
Scheduled agents
Recurring jobs in plain language, one-tap pause, a feed of every run’s results, and a notification the moment one finishes.
Approvals anywhere
When your agent needs permission, you get it wherever you are — from the Mac menu bar, or a notification on your phone.
Many gateways, one app
Pair as many as you like and switch instantly. Each keeps its own sessions, history and settings, fully separate.
A real Mac app, not a phone app stretched out
Multiple windows, a resizable sidebar, right-click menus, keyboard shortcuts, a Dock badge — and a menu bar cockpit that answers approval requests without opening the app. iPhone, iPad and Mac are one Universal Purchase.

Open Petasos and tap Try Demo Mode. The complete interface loads with example data — no server, no account, no setup. Look around first, connect later.
Private by architecture
Petasos has no backend of ours. There is no Petasos account, and no server of ours in the path. Your credentials live in the device Keychain and are sent only to the gateway you configure. No tracking, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. Error reporting is strictly opt-in and redacted.
What you need
- A Hermes Agent gateway you run yourself — home server, workstation or VPS.
- iOS or iPadOS 17 and later, macOS 14 (Sonoma) and later.
- A way to reach it — your LAN, a VPN such as Tailscale, or any reachable hostname.
Petasos is a client. The agent, its tools and all of your data stay on your own gateway.
