Local Data
The only person you can trust with your data is you. Local is the only way to build real, evolving context.
AI that knows you
All your accounts. One history. Smarter every session.
We are racing toward AGI
But your chat forgot you mid-thread.
For founders and builders drowning in AI slop —
including their own.
No goldilocks zone. A new thread knows nothing. A long one drifts. You're taught to build context, but not too much. Nobody gets it right.
Dozens of accounts. Not just five foundation models. Work and personal copies of each, plus every pre-AI tool — calendar, email, messaging, notes. You copy-paste the same context between them all day. Dumb.
Fragmented by design. Every AI company builds walled gardens. Then fractures their own product across web app, API, CLI, and IDE — good for their roadmap, bad for you.
Why I built this
Every AI provider does roughly the same thing slightly differently. Yet I'm forced to figure out how to manage and integrate them all — work accounts, personal accounts, web, API, CLI, IDE. The big labs are optimizing for coding benchmarks and enterprise sales. Nobody is building the obvious thing: an AI that just knows you.
So I built it. I wanted to learn by building — that turned into productizing. Open source, runs on your machine, permanent memory.
— Adam
Five Principles
Open Source
Trust nobody. Audit every line. You (or your AI) can read the whole codebase.
Zero Work
The whole point is AI working for you, not the other way around. One click to start — then momentum compounds.
Portable
Data, preferences, and model — yours to keep, yours to move.
Escape Velocity
Designed to teach as it serves. Understand AI from the inside — then build your own.
Three steps to permanent memory
Install
One command. No Docker, no cloud account, no config. Running on your machine in under two minutes.
Connect
Say "connect Gmail" and it walks you through. Contacts, calendar, and messages all imported through chat.
Compound
Every conversation builds on the last. Your AI sharpens with every use — and you own every byte.
Install
Paste this into a terminal. macOS only.

Common questions
Short answers. Ask Miyagi anything else.
What is Robot Dojo?
A personal AI operating system that runs on your own computer. Unlike ChatGPT or Claude.ai, it has access to your emails, calendar, messages, and contacts — all stored locally in a single SQLite file on your machine.
Where does my data live?
On your computer. All imported data goes into a single SQLite file on your machine — no cloud database, no remote server, no sync service. The file is yours to copy, back up, or delete.
How do I install Robot Dojo?
One command: curl -fsSL https://robotdojo.ai/install.sh | bash. Requires macOS 12+ and Node.js 20+. Install is under 2 minutes.
What if I cancel?
Your White Belt keeps working forever. Black Belt features become unavailable when the subscription lapses (with a 7-day offline grace period). Your data never leaves your machine, regardless of subscription status.
Can I export my data?
Yes — it's a SQLite file. Open it with any SQLite client (DB Browser, TablePlus, the sqlite3 CLI) and you have direct access to every table. No proprietary format, no export button, no rate limits on your own data.
Is Robot Dojo open source?
White Belt is fully MIT licensed. Every line of the core app — server, database, import pipeline, RAG, chat — is public on GitHub. Black Belt adds AES-256 encrypted modules that decrypt with a valid subscription key.
Does Anthropic or OpenAI see my data?
Only the specific messages you send in chat, like they would with any AI app. Your raw imported data never gets uploaded. When you ask a question, Robot Dojo pulls relevant snippets locally via RAG and sends those plus your question to the model.
If I access via robotdojo.ai, do you see or store my data?
No. robotdojo.ai is a reverse-proxy tunnel — encrypted traffic passes through us and terminates on your machine. We see routing metadata (when your device connects, roughly where from) so we can bill and rate-limit. We never see message content, chat history, or the data your Robot Dojo stores locally.
Can I switch foundation models?
Yes — even mid-conversation, without missing a beat or starting fresh. Swap between Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or local models in settings. Your data stays where it is. The foundation model is the commodity — your memory is the moat.
How does Robot Dojo compare to GBrain (Garry Tan's personal AI)?
GBrain is Garry Tan's personal knowledge system — markdown files, Postgres/pgvector, open on GitHub. It's built for technical users who want to run their own infrastructure. Robot Dojo is a product: one-command install, no database to maintain, built for people who want the intelligence without the setup. Same core idea. Different person.
