Introducing Aresto
The Personal Computer.
This time, personal.
Aresto is the first personal AI computer. A dedicated device running Aresto OS — where AI isn't an app you open. It's the foundation everything runs on. Local. Private. Yours.
AI today lives in someone else's computer.
Every time you ask an AI a question, your thoughts travel to a data center you don't control. Your prompts, your ideas, your work — stored on servers that belong to someone else, governed by policies that can change tomorrow.
Cloud AI is powerful. But it comes with a trade-off most people haven't thought through: you're renting intelligence, not owning it. You're dependent on someone else's uptime, someone else's pricing, someone else's rules about what you can and can't do.
We think there's a better way.
Meet Aresto.
A compact, silent computer built around an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super. 67 trillion AI operations per second. 8GB of unified memory shared between CPU and GPU. Powerful enough to run real AI models locally — small enough to sit next to your monitor.
An operating system where AI is the operating system.
Aresto OS isn't Linux with a chatbot bolted on. It's the first true agentic operating system — where the execution layer is agents, not applications. The most secure, most private, most AI-optimized OS ever built.
Aresto Daemon
The AI engine. Manages local models, routes between local and cloud inference, handles multi-model orchestration, and provides a Unix socket API that every application can talk to.
Aresto Shell
The AI terminal. Type a bash command or ask a question in plain English — the shell knows the difference. Built-in system monitoring, mode switching, and GPU-rendered status bar.
.aresto Agents
The future of software. Not compiled binaries, but autonomous agents that reason and act. Define an agent's identity, tools, and permissions — the daemon orchestrates everything. This is what software looks like when AI is the execution layer.
See it in action.
The Aresto Shell — where commands and conversation coexist.
This is real. Running locally. No cloud. No API calls. No one watching.
Built on three beliefs.
Privacy by Architecture
Your AI should work for you, not report on you. Aresto runs AI models directly on your device. Your prompts, your data, your conversations — they never leave the machine unless you explicitly choose cloud mode. This isn't a privacy policy. It's physics.
Agents, Not Apps
Aresto OS is the first true agentic operating system. The execution layer isn't applications — it's agents. Autonomous AI that can reason, plan, and act on your behalf. Software that works for you, not software you work in.
Yours to Own
No subscription to use your own device. No monthly fee to access the AI running on your own hardware. Cloud features are optional and pay-as-you-go. The device is yours. The software is yours. The intelligence is yours.
