Zaelar — Just talk. It handles the rest.

Your personal AI agent

Schedules, reminders, lists and everyday tasks. Tell it what you need — and watch it happen on screen.

The problem

Fifty tabs.
One agent.

A different app for every errand, and none of them talk to each other. Zaelar puts them in one conversation.

What it actually does

Listens.

Talk to it like a person — interrupt, change your mind, give it three things at once. Or type.

Remembers.

Your appointments, lists and reminders stay put — next week, next month. Long-term memory of people and preferences is in beta. beta

Acts.

Puts it in your agenda, reminds you out loud, finds it, plays it — then tells you what it did. Anything that spends money, it asks first.

Four things people ask it every day — in English or Spanish, the way they’d actually say them.

  1. Agenda

    “Dentist every Tuesday at five until June — but not the 14th. Remind me an hour before.”

    • One repeating appointment
    • The 14th skipped
    • A spoken reminder before each
  2. Three at once

    “Add milk to the shopping list, move dinner to nine and remind me at six.”

    • Milk on the list
    • Dinner moved to 21:00
    • Reminder set for 18:00
  3. Search

    “Find me a hotel in New York for the weekend.” … “Now the cheapest 27-inch monitor.”

    • Real options on screen in seconds
    • Compared side by side
    • Never books or buys on its own
  4. Player

    “Play the latest video from that channel.” … “Pause. Back to the list.”

    • A real player on the canvas
    • Driven by your voice
    • No clicking, no searching

The canvas

Say it, and the screen appears.

Your agenda, a video, a map, a price chart — it opens what you asked for as small apps on a canvas and keeps listening. Change your mind out loud and the screen changes with you.

Voice, everywhere

“—no wait, make it Thursday. And remind me the night before.”

It goes where you go.

Talk to it the way you talk to a person — on your computer at your desk, or on your phone on the way out.

  • Interrupt it. Cut in mid-answer, correct it, change your mind. It keeps up.
  • Three things, one sentence. It does them in order and reports once.
  • English or Spanish. Talk in either — it answers in the same one.
  • Phone and computer. Add it to your home screen from the browser, or get the iPhone app. Same account, same agenda.

The voice is in one place at a time: pick it up on your phone and the computer hands it over. The phone app comes with Zaelar Cloud. Get it · Desktop app

All questions →

How is this different from ChatGPT or Siri?

They answer questions. Zaelar keeps your agenda and does the work around it: it schedules, reminds you out loud at the right moment, searches real services and opens the results as small apps you keep talking to — on your phone and your computer.

What happens after the free period?

The Free plan is 500 Energy for 30 days. Subscribe any time before it ends and the Energy you have left is added to your plan. If you don’t, your agent pauses when the 30 days end or the Energy runs out — there is no card on file, so nothing is ever charged on its own. Your agenda and lists are still there when you come back.

How does Energy work?

Energy is the AI usage your agent spends as it works — thinking, speaking, searching. Paid plans add a monthly amount that renews on your billing date. Your agent warns you at 20% and 10%, and at zero whatever costs money pauses until it renews. Never a surprise bill.

Is my data private?

In Zaelar Cloud your agent runs on its own isolated machine with its own storage, not shared with anyone. Self-hosted, everything stays on your computer and only what each request needs goes to the AI, speech and search providers you choose. The source is public, so you can check.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Add it to your home screen from my.zaelar.com/m today, and the iPhone app is in review with Apple. Same account, same agent, same agenda as on your computer, where a free desktop app adds sign-in windows and your folders. The voice is in one place at a time: pick it up on your phone and the computer hands it over.

Can I self-host?

Yes. The source is public under a fair-code license (source-available): clone it, add your own AI keys and run it on your computer, free for personal or internal use. You handle setup, updates and backups yourself.
