Quick guide

A real AI agent,
no API bill

Everyone assumes running a real AI agent means a new API invoice every month. Hermes runs on the ChatGPT subscription you already pay for.

The problem

Why everyone thought agents were for developers only

01

Terminal first

Until now, trying a real agent meant opening the terminal and drowning in commands.

02

Hours of configs

You spend hours tweaking settings, and in the end it might not even run.

03

Time lost daily

Work AI could do for you, and you are still doing it by hand every day.

The fix

I installed it on my own laptop: it worked on the first try.

Not just a chatbot

It actually does the work

Scheduled automations

Daily reports, backups and weekly audits, written in natural language and running unattended.

Coding

Writes code, fixes it, and handles technical tasks in your projects.

Your daily tasks

The things you repeat every day: it learns them once, then does them for you.

And it lives where you already are:TelegramWhatsAppDiscordSignal
The crazy part

It remembers you and improves itself

Memory after every chat

Keeps what matters and builds a deeper picture of you with every session.

Skills it builds itself

After every complex task it turns the experience into a new reusable skill.

The result? A month in, you have an agent that knows your work and does it while you focus on something else.

The setup guide

Running in 5 minutes

No commands, no fuss: open the official installation guide, pick your platform (Mac, Windows or Linux), and follow the steps on screen.

Prefer no terminal at all?

Grab Hermes Desktop instead: the same agent as a regular app, no command line needed.

Get Hermes Desktop

Agents now get real work done.
The question: what will you build with them?

The same idea that lets Hermes do your tasks lets Claude Code build your whole product. Yalla Kit gives your agent the Arabic-first foundation to build on: auth, database, two languages and payments, from day one.
