For everyone.

Emu — A capable AI assistant for everyone — running completely locally.

Emu is a general-purpose AI tool for the general public, built for everyday tasks and growing toward a genuinely helpful domestic companion. It runs completely locally and needs no internet at all — except when downloading or updating its AI models from a public URL. After that, no internet is required. Emu is a stand-alone app for everyone that brings generative AI, a multi-modal language model, voice AI and computer vision together in one place.

A person at home using a friendly AI assistant on a laptop, fully offline.

One app, four kinds of AI

Emu packs generative AI, a multi-modal language model, voice AI and computer vision into a single stand-alone app — so text, speech and images can be worked with together, in one place.

Completely local

Everything runs on your own machine. Emu needs no internet at all to work — your conversations and files stay with you, with no account and no telemetry.

Internet only to fetch models

The one time Emu reaches out is to download or update its AI models from a public URL. Once they are on your machine, you can use it entirely offline.

A companion that grows

Emu starts as a helper for everyday tasks and is growing toward a genuinely useful domestic companion — a showcase of what private, on-device AI can do for everyone.

An assistant that lives on your own machine.

Picture an ordinary evening at home. Someone opens Emu on the family laptop to draft a letter, talk through a problem out loud, or make sense of a photo or a document on the desk. There is no sign-in, no waiting on a server, and — once the models are downloaded — no internet needed at all. The assistant is simply there, on the machine, ready to help with whatever is in front of them. They can ask it in text or by voice, show it an image, and carry the thread from one task to the next.

What makes that possible is that Emu brings several kinds of AI together in one place — generative AI, a multi-modal language model, voice AI and computer vision — and runs them entirely on the computer in front of you. It works on any PC, whether it has a dedicated graphics card or only a regular processor; a faster machine simply gets faster answers. It is a showcase of what private, on-device AI can be for everyone, and it is growing, over time, toward a genuinely helpful companion for the home.

Completely local — and it stays that way.

Emu runs completely locally. There is no account and no telemetry, and your conversations and files never leave your machine. The only time it needs the internet at all is to download or update its AI models from a public URL — after that, it runs fully offline, on your terms.

  • Everything runs on your computer.
  • No cloud account, no telemetry.
  • Internet only to fetch models — then fully offline.
Your facility stays in your control
Completely local — nothing is sent to the cloud.

It runs on your machine — and stays there.

Plenty of apps say they respect your privacy. Emu makes the claim structural rather than aspirational: because everything runs on your own machine, there is simply no copy of your work anywhere else to protect, leak or hand over. There is no account tied to your name and no telemetry watching in the background. The one and only time Emu reaches the internet is to download or update its AI models from a public URL — and once those are on your computer, it needs no connection at all. Your conversations and files are yours, full stop.

Running fully offline has a second benefit beyond privacy: independence. There is no connection to drop at the wrong moment, no service that can change its rules or vanish overnight, and nothing that stops being yours because a company elsewhere decided to move on. You downloaded it; it runs where you are; and it keeps working whether or not you are online. That is the quiet advantage of keeping the whole thing close to home — the tool answers to you and to no one else.
