Why MinervaAI

Everything you need. Nothing to assemble.

Other tools bolt AI on as a plugin. MinervaAI built it into the DNA.

AI that acts, not just chats

Ask a question and your AI searches your entire knowledge base. Tell it to create a note, check your calendar, or draft an email -- it does it. No copy-paste. No switching apps.

Creates & edits notes
Manages calendar
Reads email
Searches the web
Builds widgets
Live conversation
"What meetings do I have tomorrow?"
You have 2 meetings: "Design Review" at 10 AM and "1:1 with Sarah" at 2 PM. Want me to create prep notes for either?
✓ Calendar checked
"Yes, prep notes for the design review"
Created "Design Review Prep" with agenda items from your last 3 design notes. I included the open questions from your "UI Feedback" note.
✓ Note created from context

Your files. Your API key. No lock-in.
