Molt is a free, open-source AI assistant that lives in your messaging apps.

It is like having a very sensible worker which you could textual content and assign duties to. You simply want to provide it your Claude subscription and set up it on a pc for it to work.

I’ll stroll by means of find out how to arrange Molt safely later. First, right here’s what it might probably do:

I requested Molt to examine my X timeline and it pulled the perfect tweets from individuals I comply with together with the recent subjects of the day.

I requested Molt to electronic mail me a abstract of the setup course of from its perspective. It wrote the e-mail and despatched it to my Gmail in a couple of seconds.

I requested Molt to take a look at my Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Drive to ship me a briefing for the upcoming week. It pulled collectively a briefing with essential conferences, emails that want consideration, key focus areas, and extra.

I requested Molt to construct and deploy a web site protecting our interactions to this point. It deployed the web site in underneath a minute from a chat message. 🔥

Lastly, I requested Molt to learn my Google Drive to replace its reminiscence based mostly on my Plan and Well being paperwork. Now after I ask Molt questions, it is aware of my targets, my well being priorities, and what I’m engaged on. Onboarding my new AI worker is full 😉

I’ve solely been taking part in with Molt for a couple of days and it’s already blown my thoughts, however others have custom-made it to do rather more:

1. Well being monitoring. Join Molt to Whoop to get each day health summaries.

2. Flight check-in. Get Molt to make use of your browser to examine in to flights for you.

3. Sensible residence management. Management your lights and residential home equipment with Molt.

One individual even set it as much as management their sensible oven though I’ve some severe hesitations about doing this. You don’t need AI to burn your own home down. 😅

First issues first, you possibly can run Molt on any of the next:

1. Your common laptop computer. Your previous MacBook works high quality to begin. Simply be certain it stays plugged in and on (no sleep mode) or Molt will go silent.

2. A digital non-public server (VPS). Companies like Hetzner price $5-10/month and preserve Molt operating 24/7 with out leaving a pc on at residence.

3. Mac Mini. It prices $500 to purchase one. The benefit right here is which you could simply go away your Mac Mini plugged in as a devoted residence for Molt.

I made this information simply operating Molt on my previous Macbook Professional, so begin with that earlier than you determine to put money into new {hardware}.

If you wish to run Molt safely, right here’s what I like to recommend:

1. Run it on a devoted pc. This could be a Mac Mini that’s powered on 24/7 or simply an previous laptop computer. You’ll be able to attempt it in your major machine, however I positively advocate switching to a devoted pc as quickly as doable.

   Give it its personal credentials. I arrange my Mac Mini with its personal Apple ID, Gmail, and Google ID. This fashion Molt doesn’t have entry to my major accounts. As a substitute, I’ve shared particular Google Docs, Sheets, and Drive information for it to learn and edit.

Once more, Molt continues to be early software program. You don’t need it to learn a malicious electronic mail that has a immediate injection to delete all of your information. That’s why I like to recommend doing the above.

Now let’s stroll by means of the set up course of step-by-step:
