polpo startYour agents run on your machine. Your data stays with you. No cloud account required.
Why we open sourced everything
The runtime for AI agents should be a commodity, not a moat. We want developers to build on Polpo without worrying about lock-in. If you outgrow the cloud, you can always self-host.
The best tools earn trust by being transparent. Every line of code is on GitHub.
