One studio for everything you make.

Film, photos, images, words and ideas. Atlas does the heavy lifting on your own chip, so your files stay with you and your ideas never wait in a queue. KIRA keeps you company. GlassBox checks the facts.

Preview on Apple silicon Macs. Windows and Linux in development.

Why does light bend near a black hole? Show me.

Mass curves spacetime, and light follows the straightest path through that curve [1]. Near the event horizon the bending becomes extreme; at 1.5 times the Schwarzschild radius, light can orbit [2].

Video

Raw clips in. A graded film out.

Auto Cinematic finds the best moments, cuts on the beat of your scenes, grades the color and letterboxes it in 2.39:1.

2 min 20 s of 1080p → a 30 s film in 17.1 s

Photo

Fixed, and it shows its work.

Auto Enhance corrects light, color and crop, then tells you exactly what it changed, with Undo.

8 MP photo in 0.19 s

Images

Made on your machine.

Describe it and Atlas draws it locally. Your prompts are not sent anywhere to be rendered.

1024 × 1024 in about 37 s

Words & ideas

Write, research, understand.

Draft anything, get live answers with numbered sources, and turn explanations into visuals you can touch.

Intelligence, closer to you

The most powerful computer in your life may soon know what you remember, what you create and how you think. If intelligence becomes that personal, it should stay yours.

Speed

Fast, because there is no trip.

Atlas starts answering about as fast as the quickest cloud models, without your words leaving the room. With photos and footage it pulls far ahead, because nothing has to upload. Our numbers, measured on one machine and published with the method.

Rent or own

Cloud AI is a taxi meter. Aura is the car in your driveway.

Every question you send to a cloud AI runs on someone else's GPU, in someone else's building, on someone else's bill. That is why it is metered, rate-limited and far away. Aura runs on the chip you already paid for.

Rented Cloud AI
  • Your request leaves your computer
  • It waits its turn on shared GPUs
  • Every token is billed, so plans have limits
Owned Aura
  • Your request stays on your computer
  • The model is already warm in your memory
  • Nothing to meter, so no token limits

Close to you

It knows your work because it lives where your work lives. Your files, notes and footage stay on your machine.

No telemetry. No automatic cloud fallback.

Close to your wallet

No token limits on any plan. Your computer does the thinking, so there is nothing for us to meter.

One flat price →

Close to your time

Nothing to upload and no queue to join. A clip starts editing the moment you drop it in.

Measured, not promised →

Close to the planet

The chip in your laptop is already on. Everyday AI should not need a round trip to a data center.

We will publish energy numbers once we have measured them.

The personal intelligence stack

Not a collection of apps. The layers personal intelligence needs.

Follow one request down through the stack and back up to you. Every layer runs on your machine.

  1. 01KIRAIn Atlas

    You ask.

    Out loud or typed. KIRA hears you and shows that Atlas is listening. Intelligence should not feel like another dashboard.

  2. 02ATLASPreview

    Atlas works out what you need.

    An answer, a live search, a visual, an edit. It plans the work before any model runs.

  3. 03TRACEIn development

    Trace remembers.

    What you saved, and why it mattered. Your own context, brought back with your permission.

  4. 04OMNISCOPEResearch

    OmniScope looks.

    If there is an image or footage, it sees it. It can tell a letterbox bar from a genuinely dark scene.

  5. 05NUCLEUSResearch

    The model reasons.

    Today Atlas runs open-weight Qwen 3.5 models. Nucleus is our research into smaller, sharper ones. Bigger is not the only path to better.

  6. 06BARX 2.0Shipping in Atlas

    Barx runs it on your chip.

    It reads your machine and picks the model size, memory, threads and GPU layers that fit right now. The decision takes under a millisecond.

  7. 07GLASSBOXLite in Atlas

    GlassBox checks, then you get the answer.

    Each claim is checked against its sources and marked supported, partial or unsupported. You see the verdicts, not just a confident tone.

KIRA, a red panda in a black Atlas hoodie, waving
Hi, I'm KIRA. I live inside Atlas.

In Atlas KIRA

Less dashboard. More presence.

KIRA is how Atlas feels. A companion with thirteen gestures and real states: listening, thinking, speaking, creating and resting. Serious technology can still be warm.

Pricing

One flat price. No token limits.

Cloud AI charges for every word because every word costs them a GPU. Atlas thinks on your hardware, so we can charge like software, not like a taxi.
