LFG! Hermes Agent is live on the Umbrel App Store!

It's an AI agent that gets smarter the longer it runs, remembers stuff with persistent memory across sessions, learns your workflow, and autonomously creates its own reusable skills from experience.

And it's sandboxed like every Umbrel app so it can't touch anything it's not supposed to.

the aluminum gets carved, the walnut gets cut, the PCB gets placed - nothing about this needed to be this beautiful but we did it anyway

there's a version of the future where every household runs a small fleet of ai agents locally. one handles finances, one handles scheduling, one handles home automation, one handles communication.

none of them talk to the internet, all of them talk to each other, and your home server becomes the brain of your household.

we're closer to this than people think.

Introducing Umbrel Air.

No ports. No storage. No SSD slots.

Just a seamless aluminum slab with a screen that cycles through inspirational quotes about data ownership. All your data stored in our cloud for $9.99/mo.

The screen has a notch. Order now: umbrel.com

> 2TB: let me just try out this self-hosting thing

> 16TB: friends and family now come to me for storage. i am the cloud. i charge nothing. i am a generous god.

pov: your uber eats order hasn't even confirmed and you already have a 32TB home server up and running

one thing you can do this weekend: set up pi-hole on your umbrel.

one click. takes 2 minutes. suddenly your entire home network is ad-free. your smart TV stops showing banner ads. your kid's tablet stops autoplaying garbage. your phone browsers feel faster. it's genuinely life-changing for how little effort it takes.

the swiss army knife of leave-my-data-alone

your own ai agent. served fresh on your hardware.
