01 · Yours

The models you talk to are ours: tuned by us, served by us, answerable to no third party. Prefer your own keys or hardware? That works too. Your work is not a data funnel.

02 · Everywhere

Start a task in the terminal, steer it from your phone, review it on the web. Same agent, same memory, same session.

03 · Direct

Praex does the work and answers the question. No hand-wringing, no hedging, no refusing the reasonable. Private by design.

The models behind Praex: tuned by us, served from infrastructure we control, sized to the job. Or bring your own keys and run Praex on any model, free.

velox *II*

faber *II*

Pro · working

Serious coding and reasoning with room to think. Wakes on demand for Pro.

lucia *II*

Max · frontier

The full-scale mind for the problems that deserve it. Max opens soon.

Velox II is free every day, in the chat and in your terminal. Praex Pro is $20 a month: Faber II, our larger model, wakes on demand, and you get five times the daily allowance.
