Hey Ben - congrats on launching Zo. The vision of "personal servers with all your context" resonates deeply.

I built MindMirror for a similar problem: persistent memory across AI tools via MCP protocol. Your mom using Zo to manage her schedule with context from notes/files is exactly the use case.

What's interesting about cross-tool memory: users want context in Zo AND when they switch to Claude/Cursor for dev work. Same memory, different tools.

Would love to compare notes on the personal AI context problem - especially curious how you're handling memory persistence and context management at scale.

Congrats again on the launch!

Even as a huge Linux tinkerer I've been really pleased with Zo setting things up for me that I wouldn't have expected to get done on a server like this. I've started to experiment with installing Guix and serving Lem, and made a personal Telegram bot as an alternative interface. They really focus on keeping out of your way, and the Zo agent is quite persistent and gets things done that I didn't think was feasible.

The price is right for the specs of two hetzner boxes plus a convenient agentic web interface (I like my Cockpit, but it is honestly so nice to be able to just send a Telegram message to get a service set up or to grab a file just by speaking). I use all the LLM apps but, it's like comparing SMS vs. Telegram, it's just not the same?

I was a bit wary of adding my google accounts at first, but I've tried using it to send me daily images through Telegram and it's actually pretty dang nice!

One thing I would really like though is Whisper on Zo. Oh, maybe I should just get that set up on Telegram...

Zo is a genuinely incredible product. I'm a huge fan and building my own productivity stack on top of it https://n5-waitlist-va.zocomputer.io/

Go to zo.computer and join the revolution!

today we're announcing Zo. when we came up with the idea – giving everyone a personal server, powered by AI – it sounded crazy. but now, even my mom has a server of her own. and it's making her life better. she thinks of Zo as her personal assistant. she texts it to manage her busy schedule, using all the context from her notes and files. she no longer needs me for tech support. she also uses Zo as her intelligent workspace – she asks it to organize her files, edit documents, and do deep research. with Zo's help, she can run code from her graduate students and explore the data herself. Zo has given my mom a real feeling of agency – she can do so much more with her computer. we want everyone to have that same feeling. we want people to fall in love with making stuff for themselves. in the future we're building, we'll own our data, craft our own tools, and create personal APIs. owning an intelligent cloud computer will be just like owning a smartphone. and the internet will feel much more alive.

I was helping my dad figure out how he could set up a daily news bot for his stock portfolio, and Zo looks like the answer!

A sandboxed AI that operates on all my context (and helps me write scripts to import the necessary context from other services) is exactly the model of personal intelligence that I want.

The Zofounders Ben and Rob are some of the most orthogonal thinkers and builders I've met. They're pioneering a new product category. Absolutely delightful product experience and I never thought I'd say that about anything server related!

i've been using zo for the past few weeks and it's such a cool computing experience!

very cool. can use for personal MCP servers

This is cool, congrats on the launch!

I like the design of this
