Skales

The private desktop AI agent. All the power of the terminal agents, none of the terminal.·skales.app

Skales is a private AI agent that installs like a regular desktop app on Windows, macOS, and Linux (with companion apps for Android and iOS). It runs locally on the user's machine, connects to any AI model - cloud providers like Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or fully local models via Ollama/LM Studio - and performs real tasks such as background goal completion, coding, email/calendar management, browsing, and media generation. All data is stored locally, no account is required, and it is free for personal, educational, and internal business use under a source-available license.

Commercial licensing for embedding Skales in a paid product is negotiated directly. A separate future product, 'Skales Business Suite,' is announced for Q3 2026 with a waitlist open; no pricing stated for it.
