It lives in your machine.
It learns you.
Nothing leaves.
A self-learning AI that takes up residence on your own hardware. Local models, local memory — it can even retrain its own weights on your conversations, while your data never touches anyone else's servers.
transmission 01 — what it is
Your company's own resident intelligence.
Conway Entity is the conw.ai models — Conway-Retrain 12B and Conway-Omega 188M — running entirely on your computer, wrapped in a background daemon, a terminal CLI, and a private chat UI for your whole team. It links to your conw.ai account once, purely to verify your plan. After that it is autonomous: chats, memory, embeddings, and training all live in one folder on your disk. Delete the folder and it never existed.
transmission 02 — how it works
One file. Three ways to learn.
01 · arrive
Run the binary
No installer, no dependencies. It scans your hardware, suggests models that actually fit it, installs Ollama if you want extra models, and settles in as a daemon.
02 · metabolise
Pick a learning mode
System prompt: facts are indexed locally and recalled every turn. Retrain: idle training passes bake your conversations into the model weights. Or both.
03 · belong
Your team, your walls
Logins for teammates with per-user usage, an optional Cloudflare tunnel for remote access, and a memory drawer showing exactly what it recalled — every turn.
Why it's different: cloud AI forgets you between sessions and learns from you for someone else's benefit. The Entity's knowledge is an asset that accumulates on your disk — your people, your decisions, your standing instructions — and in retrain mode the model itself becomes shaped by your company. Nobody else gets a copy.

$ .\entity.exe
MACOS
Apple Silicon
Native MLX serving. Two commands in Terminal, listed below.
$ cd ~/Downloads$ chmod +x entity-macos-arm64$ xattr -d com.apple.quarantine entity-macos-arm64$ ./entity-macos-arm64
LINUX
x64
One command in a terminal, listed below.
$ cd ~/Downloads$ chmod +x entity-linux-x64$ ./entity-linux-x64
first run — what to expect
- macOS & Linux: a file downloaded through a browser is not executable. The commands above fix that — the
.tar.gzalready carries the executable bit, and the raw binary needs achmod +xfirst. - macOS Gatekeeper: the alpha is ad-hoc signed, not notarised, so macOS may warn on first launch. The
xattr -d com.apple.quarantineline clears it; you can also right-click the file and choose Open. - Windows SmartScreen: choose More info → Run anyway the first time.
- Then: the first run walks through seven setup steps and installs itself onto your PATH. If anything looks wrong, run
entity doctor— it names the problem and prints the command that fixes it.
v0.1.0-alpha · proprietary, commercially licensed — sealed single-file binaries, no source distribution, reverse engineering prohibited. Your chats never reach conw.ai; the account link exists only to verify your plan. Verify your download against the SHA-256 above (macOS/Linux: shasum -a 256 <file> · Windows: certutil -hashfile entity.exe SHA256).
