# Rakazo
Rakazo is an open source AI agent for persistent teammates, and a self-hosted AI assistant you
can run on your own machine. It is available on the web, as an Electron desktop app, and on
iPhone and Android. Bring your own model
and computer provider, or run the complete stack locally.
It is an open source, self-hosted alternative to Grok Bot, Meta Muse, OpenAI Dots, Instinct,
OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, and Hark Pro.
Rakazo is in beta. Learn more at rakazo.com.
## How Rakazo compares
Once Rakazo is running, it is just chat, like Grok Bot: you set up a bot and manage it from that
chat. Muse, Dots, Instinct, and Hark Pro are hosted assistants. OpenClaw
and Hermes Agent are also open source agents you can run yourself. Their docs describe installers,
config files, and a gateway. Hermes Desktop can reach a first chat without the CLI; a messaging
gateway is a separate process.

## Deploy on Railway
Deploy a private Rakazo instance with PostgreSQL, persistent storage and Railway computers.
Enter your email and Railway API token, then connect a model after signing in.
See setup, security defaults and backups.
## Quick start (published images)
You need Docker Engine, the Compose plugin, curl, and OpenSSL. No clone or Node install.
 [code] 
The installer downloads the Compose files, creates `.env` with random secrets, and starts Rakazo.
It preserves an existing `.env` when rerun.
Open http://127.0.0.1:5173, create an account, and connect a model.
Local Docker computers are on by default. Optional remote providers: `e2b`, `daytona`, `createos`, `boat`, or `railway`
with the matching API key.
Default image tag is `edge` (main builds, `linux/amd64` + `linux/arm64`). Details and tags:
self-hosting guide.
On restricted networks, override the installer download base (`RAKAZO_DOWNLOAD_BASE`),
