Privacy-First AI
and Universal Messaging Platform
Novus is a privacy-first AI and universal messaging platform — run unlimited local AI models free and offline, choose from hundreds of cloud models, and bring AI into your chats, files, and groups across every device.
What Makes Novus Different
Chat with your Telegram and WhatsApp friends.
Novus plans to embed Telegram and WhatsApp right inside the app, so you keep messaging all of your friends — and supercharge your conversations with AI. WhatsApp will be available in the EU via the EU's DMA interoperability interface.
- Message and collaborate with your friends
- Secure message delivery
Use AI inside your real group conversations.
Unlike the competition we don't just bolt clunky AI integrations onto existing messaging apps. Novus is built from the ground up to be a AI native messaging app.
Using Novus you will get AI native features such as:
- Hide or show AI messages
- Useful AI Agents
- Token streaming
- Semantic search
- Smart context management
- Advanced AI messaging options
AI that helps your group get real things done.
AI in group chats isn't a gimmick — it's genuinely useful. Novus brings smart, context-aware AI into the moments your group actually needs it: planning trips, catching up on missed messages, splitting expenses, drafting the perfect reply, translating for a friend, and a whole lot more.
- Colaborative document editing
- Planning & coordination
- Catch-up summaries
- Message drafting & translation
- Expense splitting
✦ What can AI help with?
Six ways AI shows up in real group conversations
Coordinate flights, hotels, and activities for everyone
Missed 200 messages? Get the key points in seconds
Track who owes what from trips, dinners & events
Write the right message for any tone or situation
Bridge language gaps so everyone stays in the loop
Ask anything without leaving the conversation
Privacy you can see and control.
We put user privacy first. Choose cloud sync or local-only retention for each conversation, so you stay in control of where your data is stored and what your AI can draw on — privacy as a visible setting, not a buried policy. We also use zero data retention endpoints by default for all cloud models.
- User data encryption in transit and at rest
- Per-conversation: cloud sync or local-only
- Local-first & offline-first design
- Zero data retention endpoints
Private by design
You decide what's stored
Per-conversation privacy
Cloud sync or local-only — set it per chat
Choose from hundreds of models for any task.
Pick your favorites and set defaults per task. Novus brings together hundreds of models from many providers — small models that download to your phone, fast and affordable cloud models like DeepSeek, Kimi, and Qwen, and frontier models from OpenAI and Anthropic — across text, image, audio, and video.
- On-device, cloud & frontier options
- Beyond chat: image, audio & video models
From providers you already use
Pay less for frontier-level AI.
Many open and efficient models now rival frontier quality at a fraction of the cost. Novus lets you choose exactly which model to use — so you can get near-frontier results for everyday work and save the priciest models for when you actually want them. No forced upgrades, no smart-routing you can't control.
- Near-frontier quality, far less cost
- You pick the model — your call, every time
You pick the model
Turn your messages, links, files, and more into searchable context.
Bring conversations, links, PDFs, documents, and shared media into the assistant so answers use the context you already have — ask questions, get summaries, and find things fast.
- Chat with messages, files & links
- Search across everything
Your personal AI assistant, wherever you are.
Novus works on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Web — so your conversations, models, and context travel with you. One app, every screen.
- iOS, Android, macOS, Windows & Web
- Synced across all your devices

Built For Personal AI Messaging

Cloud Files & Storage

Why Novus Is Different
AI Starts With Your Context
AI gets useful faster when it starts inside your conversations — not a separate app. Ask about past decisions, shared files, and threads without copying context manually.
Your Model, Your Choice
No provider lock-in. Pick the model that fits the moment: fast, cheapest, strongest reasoning, good for images, or local and private. Switch providers without switching apps.
Privacy You Can See
Choose what context AI can see, what stays on your device, and when cloud models are used — privacy as a visible control in the flow of the app, not a buried policy link.
Offline Reliability
Conversations, files, and AI stay useful on planes, in tunnels, and anywhere connectivity fails — built offline-first so the app keeps working when the network doesn't.
More AI usage for less
Many efficient models now deliver near-frontier results at a fraction of the cost. You pick which model runs for every task — no forced upgrades, no invisible smart-routing.
AI That Helps Groups Decide
Bring AI into shared conversations. Summarize group threads, turn discussions into checklists, and answer questions using files the group already has — no separate workspace needed.

Many MCP integrations are on the roadmap, so Novus can act across the apps you already use.
