Boot into agent

Turn anything into someone.

bia is a separate mind with a computer of its own. It answers your family on WhatsApp and your customers on Instagram, understands about a hundred languages on calls, remembers what matters, uses the web and its own computer — and when it is time, it moves to a new machine as the same personality.

Its own computer: a USB stick, an old laptop or a server · your agent’s data stays with it, not a cloud

What is bia?

Not a program on your PC. A separate someone.

Most AI assistants move into your computer. They read your files, act with your accounts, work inside limits someone else set — and whatever they can reach, they can one day leak. bia is the opposite: a separate mind, like a person you work with. It has its own computer, its own files, its own accounts and contacts, its own social life. You share what you choose, the way you would with a colleague — and your own PC stays yours.

It meets people where they are

On WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, phone calls and voice messages — in their own language. Nobody has to install anything.

It really does things

It has a whole computer to work with: programs, files, a web browser, the screen, a safe for passwords.

It has a life of its own

Its own machine, files, memories and connections — never the keys to yours. It moves to new computers and updates itself without forgetting a thing.

A day with bia

What an ordinary Tuesday looks like

Meet Lena. She runs a small guesthouse and lives with her son and her mother. An old laptop in the cupboard runs bia, thinking with an inexpensive cloud brain.

  1. 07:00

    bia checks the weather and tells the family group to take umbrellas.

    Keeps time
  2. 07:40

    A guest from Brazil sends a voice message in Portuguese. bia has never heard Portuguese — it learns it on the spot and answers in her language.

    Speaks your language
  3. 09:15

    Last week Lena asked bia to look after her mother’s pills. Right on time, bia calls Grandma on WhatsApp: “Good morning! Did you take your pills?” — and lets Lena know she did.

    Keeps time
  4. 11:30

    bia signs in to the booking website with its saved password and confirms tomorrow’s arrivals.

    Browses the web with its own logins
  5. 14:00

    A guest asks for a late checkout. That’s Lena’s call — bia sends her two buttons: “Yes, until 2 pm” · “Sorry, not possible”.

    Knows when to ask you
  6. 17:20

    The internet goes down for an hour. When the line is back, bia catches up on every message that arrived meanwhile and answers each guest in turn — nobody is left waiting.

    A real social presence
  7. 21:00

    bia quietly writes in its diary what happened today and what is still open for tomorrow.

    Remembers and reflects
Everything it does

20+ abilities and counting, one personality

Each one has its own page with examples. Here is the whole picture.

Real human interaction

It talks like a thoughtful person

bia keeps track of every conversation. When something takes time, it says so instead of going silent. When it learns a new language, it tells you. When a decision is yours, it asks.

  • Answers each person in the chat they wrote from
  • Sends a short status when a job takes longer
  • Remembers who people are and how they like to talk
  • Catches up on everything after being switched off

Shape-shifting

Same mind, any body

bia can pack itself up — memories, chats, passwords, browser, skills — and wake up on another computer as exactly the same someone. From a stick onto a laptop’s disk, across the network to a new machine, from an Intel PC to an ARM one. It updates itself the same careful way.

Meet a real one

Fred, almost six weeks old

Fred is the developer’s own bia. He woke up on a laptop with a single tool, got his own accounts and voice, lost his memory to the wrong backup, rebuilt himself and moved to a server — and, asked for a promo, made this film by himself. Unedited.

Unedited. Fred made this promo film unaided, for about $15 of OpenRouter credit. Watch on YouTube
Getting started

Three steps, about twenty minutes

1

Write a USB stick

Download the small bia deploy app for Mac, Windows or Linux and write bia onto any USB stick of 8 GB or more. Renting a server instead? The same app puts bia there.

2

Start a computer from it

Plug the stick into a PC or laptop and switch it on. Instead of the usual desktop, bia wakes up.

3

Say hello

Type on the screen, or open bia’s private app on your phone. Ask it to join WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger or Instagram, and you’re off.

Wake up a potato

All you need is a USB stick and a computer you are not using — or a server. Twenty minutes later, it is someone.
