Open-source Autonomous Agent with Edge-AI to run on Android devices. Most phone "assistants" just talk - and ship your data to the cloud. GUAPPA actually does the task fully on-device. Text it, talk to it, or let it run on its own. Free, open, runs right on your Android.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
We got tired of "AI assistants" that just talk. You ask for something and you get a Wikipedia summary. They can't actually do the thing.
So we built GUAPPA - an AI that lives on your Android and actually operates your apps. You tell it what you want, it opens the app and taps through it for you. And the AI can run fully on your phone, so nothing gets shipped off to a cloud.
It's free and open, still early, and I'm building it in the open.
- Full integration with Android: 108 tools - device, web, file, social, AI, automation, and GUI agent
- Edge AI: run quantized models fully offline with LiteRT (no cloud required)
- 20+ LLM providers: Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, local inference via llama.rn and LiteRT
- 5-tier memory: working, short-term, long-term, episodic, semantic + App Knowledge
- Voice: Android STT/TTS, Deepgram, Whisper
- Channels: Telegram, Discord, Slack, SMS, Email
- Proactive engine: event-driven triggers, scheduled tasks, geofences
- World Wide Swarm: decentralized agent-to-agent collaboration (WWS Protocol)
Genuinely curious about one thing: what's the one annoying phone task you'd hand off to it first? Booking stuff, replying to messages, ordering the same lunch every day, killing notifications? Drop it below - I'm looking for the next things to make it great at. 🙏

@alexander_ostapenko2 Love the focus on true on-device autonomy instead of another cloud assistant wrapper. What kinds of tasks are users automating most successfully today, and how much can GUAPPA do without needing any cloud services at all?

@nicole_hynek Thanks Nicole, that's exactly the itch I was scratching - the world doesn't need another cloud wrapper. 🙏
On what people automate most: the boring recurring stuff wins by a mile. Morning routines (check calendar, summarize overnight messages, fire off a few replies), clearing notification backlogs, pulling info out of one app and dropping it into another, and "do this every day at X" type tasks. Basically the taps you do on autopilot.
The reason it can go this deep is the tool coverage - Guappa has a big toolbox for the device itself: files, settings, sensors, scheduling, geofences, plus a GUI layer that can drive other apps directly. So it's not limited to one integration; if it's on your phone, it can usually work with it.
On how much runs without the cloud: the brain itself can run fully on-device, so reasoning, memory, your personal context, and anything that's local to the phone (files, settings, on-device app actions, scheduled triggers) need zero cloud. The only things that obviously still need a connection are tasks that are the internet - web lookups, sending a Telegram message, ordering something. So: the AI and your data stay on your phone; only the genuinely online tasks reach out.
Curious what you'd want to hand off first - always looking for the next thing to make it great at. 😄

@alexander_ostapenko2 I love the emphasis on keeping the AI and personal data on the device while only reaching out when a task genuinely requires the internet. That feels much closer to what people imagine an assistant should be than most cloud-dependent solutions today.
The automation examples also make a lot of sense—it's usually the small repetitive tasks that create the most daily friction. Really cool project and awesome work on this!
@alexander_ostapenko2 This is really awesome and so relevant in today's world (everything is right at your fingertips and works even without an internet connection!). Great app 👍 good luck to you 🍀

@maria_anosova Thank you so much, that means a lot! 🙏 You nailed exactly the feeling I was going for - everything at your fingertips, no cloud required. Appreciate the good luck, and if you give it a spin I'd love to hear what you put it to work on first! 🍀
Love seeing an open source assistant that doesn’t ship everything to the cloud. How does it interact with apps on Android, like is it using accessibility permissions or something else?

@karimbenkeroum Thanks Karim! 🙏 Great question! Accessibility services are actually off the table here - Google's been clamping down on using them for agent-style automation, so building on that would be a dead end. So GUAPPA uses an ADB bridge instead.

The fact that it runs on-device and doesn't ship my data to some cloud is huge. Installed it last night, the app-control thing is wild. Nice work 👏
