KolHive
Your own desktop. An AI that uses it.
An AI OS for your computer and the browser. Files, documents, notes, a calendar, a video editor, transcription and an encrypted messenger are already on it, and the AI works with the model you choose, in the cloud or on your own computer.
Now available. Free for macOS, Windows, Linux and the web.
The short version.
KolHive
Your desktop on Mac, Windows, Linux and the web: files, documents, notes, a calendar, a video editor, KOL Store and an AI that works in all of them. iPhone, iPad and Android are next.
KolChat
Our end-to-end encrypted messenger for chats, voice notes, files and calls. Built into KolHive, and its own app for phones, computers and the web.
One account
The same KOL account signs in to KolHive, KolChat and KolWrite. Use your email, Google, or Apple on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Free, with cloud extras
Free to download and use, with 30 AI credits a month and 250 MB of cloud storage. Pay only for cloud extras: more storage, more AI credits, cloud transcription.
A real desktop. Yours to explore.
Open KolWrite, edit a document, arrange your windows and install apps from KOL Store. Explore the full KolHive desktop with its native apps and sample data.
Demo only. No account needed. Accounts, cloud sync, recording and AI are off. Reset to clear your changes.
A real desktop, real apps, and an AI that uses them.
It behaves like a desktop.
Windows you move, resize, snap and tile, a dock you arrange yourself, a start menu, search across everything you own, and undo for what you did to your files.
The assistant works the same desktop you do.
It opens your files, edits the document on screen, drives the video timeline, and builds you an app when none of them fits.
It follows you to the next screen.
Start on your Mac, carry on from a Windows PC or any browser, and catch a passing thought on Apple Watch with KolWrite. The iPhone, iPad and Android apps are next.
Any AI, cloud or local.
Use our cloud models, or, with the Business plan, your own AI service or a model on your own computer.
Every app in its own sandbox.
Each app keeps its own storage and versions. Apps and the assistant ask before they reach a file, a tool or an action, and you can change those permissions at any time.
It builds an app when one is missing.
When no installed app fits the job, describe the tool you need and the assistant builds it and installs it next to the others.
Fourteen apps, already installed.
Open KolHive and they are on the desktop.
KolWrite
Record, transcribe in over 100 languages, separate the speakers and burn the captions in.
KolChat
Your KolChat conversations, end-to-end encrypted, with voice notes, files and calls.
KolDoc
A document editor that reads and writes Word files, opens spreadsheets, and edits PDFs rather than only showing them.
Files
A file browser with columns, previews and a gallery, drag and drop, and a trash you can undo.
Video Editor
A multi track timeline with ripple edits, keyframes, speed ramps, motion titles, caption tracks in SRT, WebVTT, SCC, TTML and EBU formats, and chapters in MP4. Export on every platform.
Calendar
Day, week, month and year, and two way sync with Google Calendar.
Quick Notes
Notes with checklists, images and slash commands. A note can turn into a calendar entry.
Browser
Tabs, separate profiles, bookmarks and downloads, inside the workspace. In the computer and phone apps.
KOL Store
