PersGraph is a self-hosted personal AI built on the OpenClaw runtime that connects your real life — emails, calendar, notes, travel plans, tasks, and saved places — into one system you can talk to. It runs on your own server, costs pennies a day to operate, and keeps your data under your control. Every morning it briefs you. Every command it remembers. Nothing leaves your machine.
From links and notes to places, travel, tasks, appointments, reminders, agenda checks, and on-demand digests, PersGraph gives you one place to talk to your life.
A private assistant that works across your notes, tasks, calendar, inbox, places, and family context, so you spend less time hunting and more time acting.
You are tired of searching across notes, inboxes, and calendars to find something you saved weeks ago.
You want a daily briefing based on your actual calendar and inbox, not generic news.
You do not want your personal context training someone else’s model or living in a cloud you do not control.
You want one system that works across family members instead of one isolated account.
You are technical enough to appreciate self-hosting, but you do not want to assemble the whole assistant stack from scratch.
PersGraph connects the fragments of your life into a private personal system that helps you know what matters before opening five apps.
Vector embeddings on all your data mean you query by meaning, not keywords. Ask about a trip you half-remember, an email you can’t find, or a decision you made months ago.
Understand with /note and /task from chat, email, or directly. Reminders arrive before it’s too late via daily cron alerts.
PersGraph already traces activity with Langfuse and is designed to plug cleanly into OpenTelemetry-style monitoring as the product scales.
Use /ingest for raw capture and /wiki-ingest when the note should be curated first. No more “I saved that article somewhere” moments.
Save places with /place and search them later with /places. Searchable by city, category, and country.
Multi-user from day one. Kids ingest textbooks and PDFs through chat or direct commands. Each user’s content is auto-tagged and cost-routed.
Every day at 8am, get a personalized digest — top headlines, tasks due today, upcoming appointments, and the best fresh signals from your inbox/calendar prebrief — delivered straight to you.
Before Morning Brief runs, PersGraph assembles a read-only prebrief from calendar and inbox context: bills due soon, follow-ups that need a reply, worth-checking updates, and the appointments that shape your day. Morning Brief uses this context when it is fresh, and falls back cleanly when it is not.
Turn on /TripToggle and PersGraph becomes a location-aware discovery companion. Instead of just storing places, it can watch for meaningful nearby opportunities — bucket-list stops, scenic detours, indoor rainy-day ideas, and a good meal to pair with the outing — then send compact suggestions.
A temporary working memory for active topics, model handoffs, and drafts. Keep Claude/Sonnet advisory, GPT drafting, and Haiku executing without polluting long-term memory.
Ingest once, organize automatically, and turn calendar, inbox, notes, and tasks into one operating view you can actually use.
Feed PersGraph emails, calendar events, links, notes, travel plans, and tasks. Your always-on AI agent keeps collecting useful context so nothing important slips through the cracks.
PersGraph structures and ranks your data behind the scenes, turning scattered inputs into searchable context plus prebrief signals like bills due, follow-ups, what is worth checking, and the exact context your daily Morning Brief can actually use.
Use simple commands and daily briefings to ask questions, review schedules, catch pending follow-ups, and run your life from one interface — without hunting through inboxes, notes apps, and tabs.
Most AI tools burn API credits on every little thing. PersGraph is engineered to spend only when it has to.
Every task is matched to the cheapest model capable of handling it. Heartbeats and cron jobs never touch Sonnet.
| Task | Model | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Cron / heartbeats / morning briefing | claude-haiku-4-5 | ~20× cheaper |
| RAG search | qwen2.5 local | $0.00 |
| Vector embeddings | nomic-embed local | $0.00 |
| Reasoning / planning | claude-sonnet | Only when needed |
The most-used operation in the system — search and retrieval — runs entirely free on your own hardware.
We evaluated OpenRouter's auto-routing. For a focused Anthropic-first stack, direct API wins on every metric.
A daily cost summary fires every evening — token usage, model breakdown, cumulative spend — delivered automatically. No dashboard login, no surprises.
Open source stack, all self-hosted
PersGraph speaks to the tools you already use — all processed locally.
PersGraph runs entirely on infrastructure you own. Your personal AI agent lives on your private VPS — not on our servers. Vector search, LLM inference, and memory all run locally. The Anthropic API is used only for reasoning tasks, and only text you explicitly send is ever processed. No training on your data. No vendor lock-in. No subscription to cancel.
A quick way to see why PersGraph feels different: it is private, proactive, and built around your actual life context.
| Capability | PersGraph | ChatGPT / Copilot | Notion AI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Runs on your server | Yes | No | No |
| Real inbox + calendar | Yes | Partial | No |
| Proactive daily briefing | Yes | No | No |
| Family / multi-user | Yes | Limited | Limited |
PersGraph gives teams a controlled operating layer for knowledge, workflow, and approved action — so AI stops being a novelty and starts paying back in speed, consistency, and reduced operational drag.
PersGraph sits above your existing stack to unify context, retrieval, and coordination. The result: fewer handoffs, less swivel-chair work, and a faster path from question to action.
Read-only by default, approval-based when action is required. Keep humans in the loop without slowing the business down.
Understands what matters, surfaces what changed, and keeps the next move visible so work doesn’t stall in the cracks between systems.
Generic AI chats. PersGraph drives execution: verified retrieval, workflow continuity, and governed action inside the tools your organization already runs on.
Private by default, command-first, and useful from day one — PersGraph turns your data into leverage.
