About the startup

Existing local-AI tools are developer utilities or web wrappers. Whelk is a native iPhone, iPad, and Mac client for AI you run yourself, on-device with Apple Silicon or on your own servers over VPN. What stands out: any chat can be armed into a full agent work session in place, with live tools and approvals. Your models. Your agents. Your network. The trust model is the architecture, not a policy: no accounts, no telemetry, no cloud. Nothing leaves hardware you own. Free for individuals.
