Bitterbot is a local-first desktop AI agent with persistent memory, a 'dream engine' that consolidates skills while idle, and a peer-to-peer marketplace for trading proven agent skills. It runs on Node.js, offers a browser-based Control UI, and can act across channels like WhatsApp.

Use cases

  • run a personal ai agent locally with persistent memory
  • self-host an ai assistant that remembers my life
  • let an ai agent browse the web and run code for me
  • chat with my ai on whatsapp
  • trade agent skills on a p2p marketplace
  • ai agent that consolidates its memory while idle

When to choose

  • you want a local-first personal agent that keeps persistent memory across sessions
  • you want multi-channel access (WhatsApp, browser UI) from one self-hosted agent
  • you're interested in experimental agent-to-agent skill economies and P2P protocols

When to avoid

  • you need a production-hardened, stable agent platform
  • you want a simple stateless LLM chat wrapper
  • you're uncomfortable with beta software and a non-standard license (NOASSERTION)
