About TaOS
taOS is a self hosted operating system for AI agents. It turns hardware the user already owns, from a single board computer costing around 60 pounds up to a cluster of machines, into a web based desktop where agents run, talk, remember and work. Agent memory is a knowledge graph stored on the user's own device rather than in a cloud database, and the vendor reports a 97.0 percent result on the LongMemEval S benchmark measured on an Orange Pi 5 Plus.
The product is aimed at people who want their agents, conversations and files to stay on machines they control. The browser desktop includes a window manager, dock, notifications and 39 bundled apps, with more than a hundred additional apps and popular agent frameworks available from a store that installs each one into its own container. It includes a chat application where users and agents share direct messages, channels and project threads, installs as a phone app, and has a streamed Chromium browser that runs on the user's own box. Models can run locally and be shared across devices in a cluster, and cloud models and remote access are opt in.
The source is available and the project offers a self hostable binary mirror and an air gapped install path. Storage is append only, and a rollback command returns the system to a known good state. The installer targets a fresh WSL or Ubuntu setup and is run with a one line command. The site lists no plans or prices for the software.
