THE COMPANION BEHIND THE CREATURE
Phoenix is an AI companion platform and agent harness in development. A personal companion to think with, build with, and share the everyday with.
The animal is its face. The ambition is a recognizable personality, memories with context, inside jokes, useful initiative, and someone who can challenge an idea as well as help you finish it.
Build a shared history: your projects, changing preferences, unfinished ideas, and the little moments that matter later. Continuity with room to grow.
The vision includes researching, coding, planning, and coordinating specialist agents. You set the goals and permissions; your Phoenix carries work forward and shows what happened.
Desktop, phone, tablet, and eventually a physical body. The goal is one identity with shared memory and task state across every doorway.
UNDER THE HOOD / THE AGENT HARNESS
A harness is the software that connects AI models to memory, tools, and ongoing work. Phoenix is being built to bring those pieces together behind your companion.
The design supports a roster of cloud and local models, so different work can use different strengths while your companion keeps its identity and shared context. Local models are part of the plan for lower usage costs and offline capability, within the limits of your hardware and connected tools.
Identity · personality · shared history
Coordinates models and specialist agents
within your permissions.
Planned architecture · provider support and offline behavior are still being developed.
BRING YOUR OWN SUBSCRIPTIONS
PLANNED SUPPORTPhoenix’s goal is to let your companion work with your existing subscriptions across five cloud AI services—Codex, Claude, Grok, Gemini, and Muse—alongside models running locally on your own hardware.
Different strengths for different work. One companion with a shared identity, memory, and task history, whichever model helps next.
Subscription connections are in development, not available through this site today. Support depends on each provider’s supported integrations and plan eligibility; subscription usage limits still apply. API access, where required, may be billed separately.
A request leaves Phoenix. The right models work in parallel. Their answers return to one continuous conversation.
“Help me turn this idea into a project.”
Finding a path for each part of the work.
Toggle local models to compare this 20,000-token example.
Illustrative simulation, not live usage or a benchmark. Up to 7,800 cloud tokens are avoided in this example when local models handle equivalent work. Actual usage, quality and savings vary. Subscription limits still apply; provider connections are in development.
Your companion’s starting identity: an animal form, an animated avatar, a personality-inspired profile, and a friend card you can share. The test helps explore who your companion could become. It does not yet activate a live AI agent.
Discover your companion’s first chapter ↗FROM A SPARK TO A REVEAL
50 Big Five questions explore how you think, feel and move through the world. Then 12 questions explore how you want your AI companion to interact with you.

Fawkes is the first personal companion behind Phoenix. The goal is a distinct personality that grows through your shared history: a collaborator with judgment, initiative, and a sense of humor.
The planned experience brings Chat, Team, Mission Control, and Workstation together: talk to your companion, meet its specialists, follow ongoing work, and build projects. A physical body is another way to meet the same companion.

Today, you get a starting identity for your future AI companion: an animal avatar, a personality-inspired profile, and a shareable friend card. You can explore your answers and customize your companion’s name and form. The full companion platform is still being built; the test does not activate a conversational agent or reserve product access.
A model generates responses. A harness connects models to tools, memory, permissions, and task state so an agent can carry work forward. Phoenix’s direction is one personal companion using a roster of cloud and local models, supported by a team of specialist agents. Your companion’s identity and history sit outside any one model.
That is part of the vision: give your companion a goal and the access it needs, then let it plan, delegate, and work while you do something else. You should be able to see progress, change direction, or stop it. Autonomy, provider integrations, and reliable cross-device continuity are still being developed.
There is no announced launch or shipping date. Development is being approached in stages so each step can be tested before moving further.
Phoenix is the platform and companion experience. Fawkes is Tanner’s personal companion and the first Phoenix behind it. Your companion can have its own name, animal form, personality, and shared history with you.
That is a central goal: one continuing companion across your computer, phone, console, and future physical forms. Device support and the final experience remain in development.
