Overview / Description
Palmtop is a self-hosted AI agent platform that runs a full production agent stack on a single Android phone with zero cloud compute. Built and tested on a Galaxy S21, it bundles local and cloud inference, chat interfaces across Telegram, SMS, and web, plus tool integrations for Calendar, Jira, email, and deploy actions. Unlike frameworks that hand you building blocks, Palmtop ships a running product: clone it, edit a single config.toml, and you have a working agent carrying your name, personality, and brand. It includes persistent memory so the agent retains context across sessions, and a built-in web presence with a blog and lead-outreach capability. The phone-first design means the entire agent runs locally without renting cloud GPUs or paying per-token inference bills. Palmtop is aimed at developers and indie builders who want an open-source, deployable personal AI agent rather than a set of libraries to assemble. It is tagged open-source, developer-tools, and artificial-intelligence on Product Hunt. Pricing is not published on its Product Hunt listing, and the project's positioning as a clone-and-configure codebase suggests it is distributed as open source. Because it is new and battle-tested on a single device, documentation depth and multi-device support may still be limited.
