What is Nysa?

Nysa (pronounced as /neesa/) is a general-purpose AI companion, that follows you wherever you go. It can text you, call you, play games with you, and control your machines! It is super fast thanks to Rust.

It’s designed to be self-hosted and to be ran on your main machine (no spooky behavior!) at all times. Its memory footprint will be low and you won’t notice any performance degradation.

Nysa is designed on the BYOK principle:

  • you choose your own provider,
  • you bring your own API key,
  • and you pay for your own usage.

It lives in your Discord DMs, group chats, servers, Telegram channels, and in your games. And, soon, in its native desktop app on Linux and macOS.

If you’d like to support the development of Nysa, contact me via email, or on Discord.

Nysa is free software, licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (AGPL-v3). You can study, modify, and distribute it. If you run a modified version as a network service, you share your changes.
