User guide
Create and manage your own personal AI agent.
Salts gives you a personal AI agent that is always online. Talk to it in your browser, on Telegram or on WhatsApp. It doesn't need your computer or a subscription. You decide how it behaves, and you only pay for what it uses.
It does a lot more than a chatbot. It can search the web, send you reminders, run tasks on a schedule, reply with voice notes, and read the photos, links, PDFs and voice notes you send it.
It can also connect to apps you already use, such as Notion, GitHub and Swiggy, and do things for you in them. Missing an app you need? Let us know and we'll look at building it.
