About Companion Hub
Companion Hub is open-code self-hosting software built by Companion IntelligenceΒ . It makes running local services as simple as installing an app, while keeping you in control of your data.
Our mission
Your files, photos, communications, and AI context should live on your hardware, governed by your rules. Companion Hub makes that practical, not aspirational. We believe powerful software should be democratized; individuals and small teams should be able to one-click install the same tools enterprises pay thousands for, run them locally, and own the results completely.
What makes Companion Hub different
Companion Hub is built for Ubuntu 26.04, the Linux base for Companion Core and CI-OS. It started as a fork of an open-source project and has grown into something distinct:
- CI Account: sign in at hub.ci.computerΒ to control your Hub from anywhere, without exposing ports or setting up VPNs manually
- Managed Cloudflare Gateway: one-click secure access to your apps from the internet, provisioned through your CI Account
- First-party apps: a growing suite of apps purpose-built for Companion Hub, including Companion Memory and Memory Import Tools
- Companion agents: local agent frameworks (OpenClaw and Hermes) that plug into Companion Memory via MCP, so your assistant knows you without sending anything to OpenAI
The Companion Intelligence vision
Companion Hub is the infrastructure layer of a larger bet: a future where communities and individuals run their own stacks, own their own intelligence, and stop renting their digital lives from corporations. Companion Memory is the consumer heart of that vision β it imports your lifeβs data and lets you query it like a database of your own history.
It is not anti-technology; it is pro-ownership.
Open source
Companion Hub is open source. The underlying technology is standard Docker, so your services are never locked in. If you decide to move on, your apps keep running with docker compose up.
