Kickstarter prelaunch

Four THOX devices. Fifteen reward tiers.

Private AI as a system, not a single endpoint.

ThoxKey, ThoxAir, ThoxMini, and ThoxClip are the four items in the campaign. Launch timing and estimated delivery windows will be published on Kickstarter.

Four layers, one architecture

THOX™ combines purpose-built models, personal devices, local execution, private networking, and human-controlled AI workspaces into one architecture.

THOX.ai LLC develops private, local-first artificial intelligence hardware and software intended to let users own, control, and run intelligent systems across personal devices without requiring cloud dependence.

  1. ThoxOS™

    Runs and manages intelligence at the device layer.

  2. MeshStack™

    Connects authenticated devices and compute into a distributed private AI mesh.

  3. ThoxBeam™

    Models on your USB. Inference on this device's GPU. Offline.

  4. ThoxWork™

    Coming Soon

    The workspace layer where humans, agents, Digital Employees, models, tools, devices, approvals, and artifacts converge.

The core principle
Compute should move to the user's data whenever practical — not require the user's data to move to remote compute.

THOXBEAM™

The whole runtime lives on the drive

Everything ThoxBeam™ needs ships on ThoxKey™: the HTML interface, the Rust/WASM engine, the WGSL compute kernels, the model files, and the tokenizer. There is no separate download and no server component.

  • No install, no admin rights, no network

    The launcher binds loopback on an ephemeral port and gates access with a constant-time token. Nothing is written to the host and nothing is requested from the network.

  • Cross-origin isolated by construction

    COOP, COEP, CORP, CSP, and nosniff are set by the launcher itself, not by a server you do not control.

  • Signed and integrity-checked

    Every asset is covered by a signed manifest, and path traversal is blocked at every component that resolves a path.

  • Range-addressable model storage

    Weights stream off the drive rather than being copied onto the host.

Your data never leaves the machine, because there is nowhere for it to go.

THOXWORK™

Coming Soon

The daily workspace, in preview

ThoxOS™ is local ownership, on every device. MeshStack™ is private distributed ownership, opt-in clustering. ThoxWork™ is the daily workspace for corporate and business teams on ThoxNova and ThoxUltra.

Your AI. Your Data. Your Rules.

ThoxWork Home. The daily workspace, with the locked navigation across Home, Agents, Projects, Devices, and Vault, and a device panel naming ThoxOS, MeshStack, and ThoxWork.

A walkthrough of the surface

Home, then jobs and activity, then Agents, Projects, Devices, and Vault. Thirty-eight seconds, start to finish.

Digital employees, not chatbots

Each one holds a role, a ThoxLoop seat, a privacy boundary, and a pinned device. THOXY is the front door. Ava, Mira, Kai, Sera, Nova, Helix, Rhea, and Atlas sit on the mesh. ThoxEmployee is the local employee OS for bringing your own roles and instructions into a workspace you control.

See how ThoxEmployee fits

Build your team in ThoxEmployee, run an ordered task, and review its written handoffs. The hosted guest demo has daily call limits and expires after 24 hours. ThoxWork remains Coming Soon.

What the preview shows

  • Name a job and THOXY routes it

    Finance goes to Helix, a privacy or policy review to Sera, MagLink to Nova, strategy to Atlas. The employee returns a work product on-device, or through THOX Router when it is available.

  • Work is reviewed before it counts

    Open Atlas. A job sitting in judge can be Released or Returned to student. Released work can be Promoted to vault.

  • One palette, one locked navigation

    The command palette reaches Home, Agents, Projects, Devices, and Vault. Mesh on in the header shows the full roster, and the default view is THOXY only.

  • Every employee is pinned to hardware you own

    Select ThoxNova-01, ThoxUltra-A, ThoxUltra-B, or MeshStack-HQ and see who is pinned to it.

  • The vault keeps what the team learned

    Shelves for skills, templates, knowledge, and memory, scoped HOT, WARM, COLD, or VAULT. Writes are append-only and carry a named owner.

  • Prepare your team in ThoxEmployee

    Use Migration Studio to review a bot configuration you own. The local employee kernel holds roles and instructions; the supervised task workspace runs ordered team tasks and keeps written handoffs ready for review.

  • Review each profile before importing

    Move a ThoxPack employee-profile file between the ThoxEmployee task workspace and the ThoxWork review surface. Inspect the roster, roles, and full instructions, then explicitly review the profiles you choose to save. The exchange is file-based.

  • Keep reviewed profiles under your control

    The ThoxWork review surface keeps profiles in the current browser. Export a reviewed pack when you want to move them. Saving a profile does not register it with the backend, start tasks, or activate tools and routines.

  • Review policy decisions in the audit trail

    ThoxEmployee kernel policy checks record their allow or deny result and the rule used. Export the append-only audit history as CSV to inspect those decisions. Recognized secret patterns in event details are redacted; review exported records before sharing.

Bring your bot into ThoxEmployee

Keep the role and instructions you own. Prepare and review employee JSON in your browser, then choose whether to import it into the hosted workspace.

Step 1 of 4Prepare file. A synthetic instruction file is ready to start.

Illustration only. No files are read, converted, downloaded or imported. Accounts and tool permissions stay separate.
Try the profile transfer demo

Prepare Grok, Hermes or Pi instruction text in your browser. Review the employee JSON and rehearse an import before using it in your workspace.

  1. Bring your instructions

    Copy instructions you own or are authorized to move, or choose a supported instruction file or employee JSON. Source accounts stay separate.

  2. Review in your browser

    Review names, roles, source IDs and full instructions. Try an import in the virtual workspace; it stays in browser memory and makes no AI call.

  3. Import into the hosted workspace

    Download reviewed employee JSON and open the hosted workspace separately. Selecting the file there uploads the profiles for a new review before you confirm import.

  4. Set up ThoxWork separately

    ThoxWork remains Coming Soon. An operator reviews the employee package and configures registration with the THOX backend and ThoxWork roster. Browser rehearsal and hosted import do not register an employee with ThoxWork.

Transfer uses instruction text you provide. It does not connect source accounts or transfer memory, credentials, logins, subscriptions or tool access. Importing a profile does not start work.

The four THOX devices

The four THOX devices under the heading Four devices. Your starting point. ThoxKey, a drive-resident runtime needing a compatible host, shown with its USB-A converter; ThoxMini, compact with no ring; ThoxAir, the wireless companion with its top attachment ring; and ThoxClip, magnetic charging with an edge battery readout.

Items

ThoxKey™

A 128 GB drive-resident AI runtime with a native USB-C connector. The models and AI engine live on ThoxKey; a compatible host supplies the compute. Nothing installs on the host, and unplugging the drive leaves the runtime with you. Includes one separate USB-A port converter. Choose Matte Black, Space Gray, or Arctic White. There is no separate USB-A ThoxKey model. 256 GB, 512 GB, and 1 TB capacities are on the production roadmap.

ThoxAir™

A compact wireless THOX companion for local-first workflows. Its body measures 82 × 36 × 16 mm, with the top attachment ring excluded from those dimensions. It has a horizontal ThoxAir face mark, side control stack, lower vents, bottom USB-C, a thin enclosure seam, and a lower green status blade. Choose Matte Black, Space Gray, or Arctic White.

View ThoxAir

ThoxClip™

A magnetic wireless charging THOX device with onboard compute. It clips to the back of an iPhone or other compatible mobile device, with a circular magnetic alignment ring and a small edge status readout. Its face measures 101 × 64 mm, with 1.60 mm side walls and 60.80 mm internal width. Its depth is not published while it awaits confirmation. Choose Matte Black, Space Gray, or Arctic White.
