Bestie

Self-hosted, local-first AI companion runtime with memory and permission gates.

Servicefree

Bestie is a self-hosted, local-first AI companion runtime with persistent local memory, configurable LLM providers, and a permission-gated system for what the assistant is allowed to do. It's reachable via Telegram, Zalo, or a local web UI, and is Vietnamese-first by default with editable character files. It's aimed at individuals wanting a private AI companion they run themselves, and is explicitly not a substitute for professional mental health, medical, legal, or financial advice.
