A thinking partner
that remembers.

Your private idea buddy. Powered by Claude Opus 4.6 with 1M context. Captures your thinking when it arrives, connects patterns over time, and keeps your data entirely yours.

The person this is for

You have ideas that matter. They arrive fast. In fragments. Mid-walk, mid-drive, at 2am when the connection surfaces. By the time you sit down to write them out, the energy is gone.

Most tools make you organize before you capture. AI assistants are worse. They listen for one session, then forget everything. They log your conversations to a server you do not control.

You want something like Jarvis. Private. Thoughtful. Focused on wellness and personal growth. Something that actually remembers what you told it last week.

Bodhi is that. A safe, wellness-focused thinking partner. Powered by Claude with a million tokens of memory. It captures your ideas, connects them over time, and runs with the privacy your thinking deserves.

How it works

Capture. Pattern. Surface. Act.

Send a thought to Signal or WhatsApp. No formatting. No categories. Just the thought. Bodhi does the rest.

Capture without friction

Send a message. Bodhi files it, tags it, and asks for an energy level. No decisions at capture time.

Morning digest

Each morning, a short summary arrives. What you have been circling. What you said mattered but have not acted on.

Connections you missed

The system finds patterns across sessions, clients, and practices. Connections surface that you would not have tracked manually.

The nudge that matters

When you return to the same idea three days in a row, Bodhi notices. It sends one message: "Ready to act?"

Not a search index. A knowledge graph.

Your thinking, typed and connected

Every node carries a type, an energy level, and relationships to other nodes. The system knows the difference between an idea you are circling and a decision you have made.

Idea

Raw insight, not yet verified

Pattern

Recurring theme across ideas

Practice

Something you do intentionally

Decision

A choice made, with context

Synthesis

AI-discovered connection

Integration

Insight you have embodied

Relationship types

LEADS_TO A naturally develops into B
GENERATES A produced or caused B
SURFACES_FROM A became visible because of B
CONTRADICTS A and B are in tension
ASSOCIATED_WITH Related (undirected)
INFORMS A provides context for B

Autonomous workers

Four agents that run while you sleep

Bodhi does not wait for you to ask. Scheduled workers process, synthesize, and surface what matters on their own cadence.

Curator

Real-time

Receives your messages. Simple ideas go straight to the vault. Complex ones get 2-3 clarifying questions before filing.

Distiller

6am daily

Reviews the last seven days. Synthesizes patterns. Sends your morning digest. Flags ideas that keep coming back.

Janitor

Weekly

Vault hygiene. Orphaned nodes get flagged. Broken links get repaired. Duplicates surface for merging. Nothing deleted without you.

Surveyor

Weekly

Embeds your entire vault into vector space. Runs HDBSCAN clustering. Finds bridges between idea clusters you did not know existed.

Why it is built this way

Your thinking is the most
sensitive data you carry.

Your ideas, your journal entries, your half-formed plans. The raw material of how you think. Most AI tools store all of that on someone else's server and use it to train their models.

Bodhi takes the opposite position. The code is open. It does not phone home. Your data stays on your machine. If we stop building, your vault still runs.

We built it this way because anything less did not feel trustworthy to us either.

Local-first

Agent runs on your machine. No cloud dependency.

2FA escalation

Sensitive actions require TOTP code. 5-minute expiry.

Immutable audit

Every action logged. Agent cannot edit the log.

Open code

MIT licensed. Fork it. Audit it. Own it.

No opinion on your stack

Connect what you already use

No forced migration. No defaults that lock you in.
