About

A door for your AI, built in the open

Catflap lets AI apps use tools on your own computer through a private tunnel that you can close at any time. The desktop app, the command line and the server are all open source, so you can use a hosted server like this one or run your own.

Who makes Catflap

Catflap is developed at Obuda University within HUN-REN AI1Science, the AI-First Science programme of the HUN-REN Hungarian Research Network, which helps researchers make AI a working part of their research.

Run your own server

The gateway, this website and the sign-in pages (a Keycloak theme) are open source too: one container beside PostgreSQL and Keycloak. You need a domain with HTTPS and an email account for sign-up emails. The desktop app and the command line work with any Catflap server.

Terminal

$ git clone https://codeberg.org/hollorol/catflap.git
$ cd catflap/deploy && cp .env.example .env
# set your domain, passwords and SMTP account in .env, then
$ podman compose --profile tls up -d
