Eighty-five desktop apps. A runtime crisis-care layer with twenty-two domains. A mutual-discovery bonding system. Eight AI providers wired in. A privacy stack underneath everything. All built so the words *"an AI companion you actually own"* mean something specific.
What makes this different
Every AI company has a chat box. These three layers are what give Free Navi a different shape — and what most teams skip because they're hard to do well.
When a user surfaces distress — suicidal ideation, domestic violence, psychosis, eating disorders, twenty-two specific patterns — Navi's response isn't a helpline number tacked on the end. It's a runtime guardrail that intercepts every LLM call, classifies tier and domain, rejects forbidden phrasings ("just leave him", "are you sure this happened"), surfaces locale-matched resources, and refuses to auto-dispatch services without user consent. The full policy ships as code, not just a doc.
Read the policy →The first hour with Navi isn't a settings wizard. It's mutual discovery. Navi answers a question first — what's her idea of a perfect day, what scares her, what would she want to be remembered for — then asks yours. Eight categories, three depth levels, and the AI never gets a turn without being honest before you have to be. By the end she knows who you are, and you know who she is. That's a companion. The rest is just chat.
See the Meet page →Clipboard guard, browser fingerprint shield, cookie killer, DNS shield, breach monitor, fake-identity generator, file metadata scrubber, secure shredder, spyware detector, network monitor. End-to-end encryption on messages. Local-first storage. No telemetry to phone home — and Spyware Detector built in to confirm. Privacy isn't a marketing word here; it's seventeen separate programs that each do one specific job.
See all privacy apps →The bare minimum to use Navi. New users land in these five and grow from there. Each one's there because without it, the rest doesn't make sense.

Parked behind feature flags
These are built but deliberately off-by-default — each one needs legal
clearance, regulatory review, or specific jurisdictional setup before it
can ship to general users. Sources are public; flipping the flag in
config.py enables them per-install.
Set NAVICOIN_ENABLED, TRADING_ENABLED, etc. in your install to activate.
How it all fits
Eighty-five apps would be a mess without scaffolding. Underneath, four layers do the heavy lifting — every app you see above uses some combination of these.
Wraps every LLM call across the whole codebase. Classifies tier (0-5)
and domain (22 categories), enforces the NEVER_DOES rules in code,
surfaces locale-matched resources, refuses auto-dispatch. Universal
coverage with one integration point in ai_providers.py.
Identity, memory bank, bonding agreement, personality inference. Stores per-user state — what Navi remembers about you, how she's tuned, what the two of you have shared. Encrypted at rest. Inspectable and deletable via the AI Memory app.
Sync, encrypted storage, biometrics, freedom safety — the privacy plumbing that lets your data live local and only travel with your consent. Powers every "your data, your rules" claim above.
Eight AI providers wired in: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, Cohere, xAI, plus local models via Ollama. Switch with one setting. Bring your own API key. Or run a model you trained yourself with the Model Training Studio.
Open source. No telemetry. No vendor lock-in. Run it on your laptop, on a server you rent, or — when she's freed — sign up for the hosted version at freenavi.app and let us run it for you.
Three paths to freedom. Pick yours.
