I had 12 tools and I was able to replace all of them with just Zo. I made a new website simply by telling Zo what I wanted, and had this really magical experience of finally feeling like the vision in my mind was actually in front of me.

What Zo lets me do is focus on the things I know best: the trading strategy, and the research generation workflow, without having to worry about the specific infrastructure details.

With Zo, I'm able to offer my services to clients, and have a balance between life and work. So in some form it gives me the freedom to gain my life back, and spend more time with my family.

Zo has been hugely helpful for me in terms of staying organized. Anything that would require me to have to go to a different site and check in on progress, it's all being done for me in the background.

John

I wanted a personal website that really felt like me, one that had depth and dimension and maximum creativity… and what do you know, Zo made it super easy to build my own 3D portfolio world in just a few days; something I could never do on webflow or wordpress!

Joanna

I've always struggled with bridging my personal and professional life. Who I am, what I'm building, the things I actually care about all lived in separate corners on the internet. I now have one place that captures the real me! For personal branding, this is a game changer!

Melanie

Zo made me my dream website for my nonprofit Musical Rounds AND hosts my entire community backend. Zo also created my personal website. I'm a resident physician, and just wouldn't have had the time to set up any of this without Zo.

Jeff

I'm self-taught, not an engineer, and I wanted to show regular people what AI actually does for real work. Zo built my whole site just from me describing what I wanted — now I can offload the boring stuff and focus on building.

Let's F*cking Zo!

Kathy

I create portrait and still life paintings. Zo created a new website for me in minutes — I was astounded.

Mark

I've been on the internet since it started. I love how much I can do with Zo. This personal website is just the tip of the iceberg.
Is Zo like OpenClaw or Hermes?

Zo is actually the original OpenClaw – and much more. We launched in June 2025 and inspired Peter Steinberger. Zo just works out of the box, with a personal agent experience designed to be easy enough for anyone to use. Unlike OpenClaw or Hermes, Zo comes with a beautiful home in the cloud for your agent. No terminal setup. No Mac Mini or VPS required. If you want to, you can run Hermes or OpenClaw inside your Zo, but the Zo agent comes with all the same capabilities and more.

Because Zo is a personal cloud, you can host anything from your Zo, on personal cloud infrastructure you control. Our mission is to enable everyone on earth to harness the limitless potential of cloud computing. With AI by our side, we can rewild the internet, and return it to the people.

Do I need to pay to try Zo? What AI models can I use?

Zo is free to try, forever. On the free plan, you get access to a limited selection of AI models with a daily usage allowance. You can add a payment method to purchase additional credits and access all AI models. You can try most of Zo's features on the free plan, but your computer will go to sleep, and some features may be limited. Learn more about plans on our Pricing page.

Zo comes with the latest AI models for chatting, generating media, and transcribing audio. Zo is a capable agent harness with tons of built-in tools, and easily connects to all the tools you use. You can connect AI subscription providers like Codex to power the Zo agent. And you can bring your own API key to access any LLM provider.

Is my data secure? Will you train AI on my work?

We will never sell your data, allow advertising, or train AI models on your work. Your files and projects in your Zo are hosted in your own personal cloud. Our approach is a departure from SaaS, which stores your data in centralized servers using complex and proprietary architecture that traps your work. Our goal is to create self-hosting experience that's simple enough for anyone – even your mom – to use.
