Kwaai elected a new Board of Directors in October 2024.

Kwaai's Executive Officers are corporate representatives elected to serve by the guidance of the Board of Directors.

Kwaai's Board of Directors vote to guide the organization's corporate decisions.  

Kwaai's Advisors are heavily active in the day to day activities of Kwaai.  They may organize, lead or be involved in fundraising or development efforts to support the altruistic mission.   Advisors are self-selected individuals, approved by the Board of Directors with a high degree of ownership and personal accountability.  Inactive Advisors who do not attend Kwaai meetings, will be asked by the Advisory Council Chair to become Members.

Kwaai's Members are the builders and researchers that empower the mission and our efforts.  Join us synchronously or asynchronously across workgroups via Slack, Zoom, and Youtube. 

What is Kwaai?

Kwaai is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit corporation. We are a volunteer based, open source AI research and development lab focused on democratizing artificial intelligence by building a Personal AI. We center our efforts around the principals of personal control, self-sovereign identity, transparency and openness.

What is the Problem with AI?

AI’s exponential growth entails significant risk of a dystopian outcome.

AI can subjugate us. Not in the manner described in the AI doomer click bait prophecies but weaponized in the arsenal of big business to further concentrate wealth and power.

Our data has been mined since commerce developed on the Internet. Our digital personas, captured in data silos of large brands, are used to target us for advertising of their products and services. This trillion dollar industry is a dumb waste of resources. Your digital persona extracted by cookies, pixels, and other spyware is inaccurate and out of date. That is why you receive ads for a product eavesdropped from a conversation or offers from a product that you've already purchased. Why can't they simply ask me what I need? Personal AI can help.

In the Kwaai Manifesto, we acknowledge the once in a generation leap forward in AI but question "what could possibly go wrong?"

What can we do to make a difference?

We need a grass-roots, volunteer, open-source movement to resist the oligopoly that’s concentrating wealth and disempowering individuals.

What is the Kwaai Mission?

To democratize Artificial Intelligence through Personal AI. Tagline: AI - Now it's Personal

What is Personal AI?

Vision of Personal AI

Imagine an assistant that you own,

That you can talk to, that knows you,

That can make you a better you.

Amplified rather than Artificial Intelligence.

The problem hinges on Who Owns Your Data?

If corporations continue to mine your private data to train their models to better monetize you,

Or your employer trains a co-pilot on your past work output?

Then you’ll likely end up devalued, poorer, and less employable.

How do we build Personal AI?

Trained on our latest personal experience

Secure, private with revocable entitlements for 3rd party access

That can run locally without a SaaS toll

How do employ AI technology in our favor?

Kwaai is building a Personal AI Operating System that you can


Personal AI (PAI) is a technology that leverages your own data to enhance your daily life and interactions. We give you the tools to refine AI with your own data, resulting in an augmented intelligence, uniquely tailored to you. The Personal AI Operating System (PAI OS) is a comprehensive set of user interfaces, systems, and services on which PAIs run to support your goals.


Kwaai's Personal AI (PAI) stands out as an open-source, individually operated AI assistant, utilizing private data for self-governance. It creates a Personal Knowledge Model to enhance your decision-making and effectiveness. This tool is designed with a focus on your interests and economic empowerment, unlike centralized services that prioritize monetization goals of vendors.
